A Roadmap For Achieving Carbon Neutrality In The Most Cost-Effective Way
Cutting-Edge Strategies And Technologies Aimed At Reducing Carbon Footprints, Promoting Circularity, And Achieving Commercial Viability In The Automotive Industry
The LCA & Circularity Solutions For Carbon Neutral Vehicles 2023 will be taking place again in 2023, 19-20 September (with Pre-Conference Training Workshop on 18 September) this time in Germany. As the first in-person European LCA event for the automotive industry, this event offers next-level knowledge sharing and face-to-face networking. However as a fully hybrid event, you can also choose to join virtually, so don't miss out on this one of a kind collaboration opportunity.
Part of our successful series of online and in-person automotive sustainability events, held in USA, UK and Germany, this community continues to grow!
About The 2023 Event
This year's conference offers two focus days that delve into complex issues surrounding carbon footprint reduction and circularity.
Day 1 of the conference will focus on holistic sustainability solutions for the entire vehicle, emphasising LCA and circularity.
Day 2 will delve into carbon footprint measurement and reduction, as well as recycling solutions for EV batteries and electrification components specifically.
This unique structure allows participants to gain a comprehensive understanding of sustainability challenges and opportunities in the automotive industry while also exploring targeted solutions for EV battery recycling and carbon footprint reduction.
The agenda is designed to integrate the financial performance of carbon-neutral and sustainable vehicles into all sessions, ensuring attendees receive well-rounded perspectives.
PLUS A Pre-Conference Workshop On Automotive Life Cycle Assessment
Monday 18 September
If you need to build your knowledge and connections in this space then ensure you join over 200 other companies from the OEM tier 1- 3 supply chain by attending the LCA & Circularity Solutions for Carbon Neutral Vehicles Congress this September.
Designed to assist European Automotive OEM’s and the supply chain achieve their decarbonisation and sustainability targets, this event provides genuine practical value for the sustainability community. Building on the outcomes of the previous 2 events in the series, the agenda will cover circularity innovation & new business models in practice – including repurposing factories to refresh vehicles & raise the value of components; examining easy to recycle substitutes for plastics that are cost competitive & scalable; evaluating the most efficient recycling methodologies and understanding diverse perspectives on the way ahead for battery end of life strategies.
