From Expansion to Performance
Charging operators must improve utilisation, uptime, customer experience and financial returns — not simply install more charge points.
Europe’s transition to electric mobility is entering a more demanding phase. Expanding charging coverage remains essential, but the industry must also address grid connection delays, infrastructure economics, operational reliability, and the challenge of delivering charging capacity where it is needed most.
The EV Charging Infrastructure Summit — UK & Europe brings together charging network operators, electricity utilities and distribution network operators, automakers, infrastructure developers, technology providers, policymakers, and investors to examine the strategies and technologies shaping the next generation of EV charging infrastructure.
Taking place May 11–12, 2027 in London, the Summit focuses on practical decisions that determine whether charging projects move forward successfully — from securing grid capacity and financing installations to improving network performance and integrating charging with the wider energy system.
Why This Summit — Why Now?
Grid Capacity Is Critical
Connection queues, reinforcement costs and power availability increasingly determine deployment timelines and site economics.
The Business Case Must Deliver
Public networks, motorway hubs, fleet depots and destination charging each face distinct commercial challenges.
Charging Meets the Energy System
Managed charging, storage, dynamic tariffs and bidirectional charging can reduce costs and create value for customers and networks.
BUILT FOR EUROPEAN MARKETS
Real Projects. Practical Solutions.
From motorway charging hubs to urban networks, the Summit examines the technical, regulatory and commercial decisions that turn charging plans into dependable infrastructure.
