Nordic EV Summit 2019

This year the Nordic EV Summit summit focuses on four central themes:

  1. Ramping up production

  1. Charging from pole to pole

  1. The Norwegian EV policy kit: can it be exported?

  1. Barriers, carriers, and consumer choice

Annika Hoffner, Head of Public Charging Services & Home Charging at Fortum, will be in a panel discussion on Fast Charging in a Mass Market, held on the 21st of March at 11:20.

“We have been experiencing a rapid market development, and we have seen the challenges EV drivers face when it comes to EV charging. As we are entering the mass market our key priority is to provide easy to use and energy-efficient charging services, and for example, queueing is high on the agenda. A good development on the technology side is high power charging, which will enable drivers to charge significantly faster - and we are currently rolling out a number of HPC stations in our network,” comments Annika.

Fortum Charge & Drive is a sponsor of the Nordic EV Summit, and you can find us on the expo floor. If you are attending the summit, we look forward to discussing our 360° service portfolio for electric vehicle charging, as well as our innovations regarding wireless charging, price models for fast charging, housing association concepts, or our HPC build-out plans!
