EV4EU Final Session at TRA 2026

On May 19th, the EV4EU project Final Event, “EV4EU: From V2X Innovation to Implementation in Europe’s Energy System,” will bring together experts and key stakeholders to discuss the critical role of electric mobility in the European energy transition. As the project reaches its end in May 2026, this is a great opportunity to present its final outcomes and achievements.

From the Azores island of São Miguel in Portugal to Denmark’s tech hubs, the project has tested the limits of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) technology. Now, it is time to showcase real-world results from the project’s four European V2X demonstrators in Portugal, Slovenia, Greece, and Denmark.

Experts will present a strategic roadmap and regulatory solutions to bring these technologies to market, followed by a collaborative session with V2X Cluster projects (Drive 2X, SCALE, AHEAD, ePowerMove) where project leaders will pitch the next generation of energy grid innovations and discuss the future of V2X technology.

Join the conversation as we explore solutions to turn electric vehicles into the backbone of Europe’s energy system.
