Europe is at a critical juncture in its road transport electrification journey. We brought together two leading European green champions at our #FutureDriven Reception for a deep dive ahead of game-changing European elections.
Leonhard Birnbaum, CEO of E.ON, one of Europe’s largest distribution grid operators and supplier of energy, joined Alexander Vlaskamp, CEO of ACEA member, MAN Truck and Bus for this timely discussion.
The two top CEOs sat down for a head-to-head on what policy makers and industry can do to make Europe’s climate ambitions a reality while retaining our global competitiveness.
Recognising the importance of a collective ‘team sport’ both CEOs were united on the need for urgent and coordinated action to support shared decarbonisation goals.
In sum: policy makers must also play their part in implementing decarbonisation targets by incentivising charging infrastructure and grid network deployment.
