Summary - EV Charging Infrastructure Midwest

Electric vehicles are at the center of the solution for decarbonizing the transport sector. However, a robust, accessible and user-friendly public charging infrastructure is a pre-requisite for boosting the adoption of EVs.

Midwestern states have ambitious EV-related plans and are collaborating to accelerate vehicle electrification in the region. Five states – Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin – recently formed the Regional Electric Vehicle Midwest (REV Midwest) coalition with the aim to develop a coordinated approach to advance electrification and collectively foster investment in EVs and EV charging infrastructure.

After several successful conferences on EV Charging Infrastructure and Fleet Electrification, Global Transmission Report is organizing its EV Charging Infrastructure Midwest edition on May 24-25, 2022 in Chicago, Illinois. This conference is dedicated to showcasing the opportunities, plans, policies and solutions to build a smart and efficient public charging infrastructure in the Midwest.

The event will present plans and programs for strengthening the EV charging infrastructure in key Midwestern states. It will highlight the initiatives of leading utilities in advancing the build-out of this infrastructure. It will showcase the next-gen technologies, platforms and solutions for charging, managing interoperability issues, and improving customer experience. It will feature the views and experience of leading charging network operators. The event will also discuss optimal strategy to address fleet electrification challenges.

The conference will bring together policymakers, regulators, utilities, charging network operators, OEMs and technology providers to discuss the challenges and propose solutions for building a user-friendly public charging network in the Midwest.
