The race against time: 100% EV by 2035?

The pressure is on for major automotive markets to phase out the combustion engine and transition to battery electric vehicles. As a result, the battery supply chain is under immense strain.

SFA (Oxford) is proud to host this unique event with players from across the supply chain, to gain perspective on their challenges and how infrastructure and industry must align to meet the ambitious zero-emissions targets.
