About Event
The EV Charging & Battery Recycling Summit 2026 convenes decision-makers examining where infrastructure deployment, asset utilization, and battery end-of-life strategies intersect within the electric mobility economy.
With capital intensity rising across charging networks and battery systems, performance degradation, grid limitations, compliance costs, and residual value recovery are becoming central commercial considerations rather than downstream afterthoughts.
Discussions will center on scalable charging investment models, energy integration strategies, battery redeployment economics, recycling capacity development, and the policy and financing frameworks shaping bankable, circular EV projects.
The event enables participants to identify partnership opportunities, evaluate risk and return across the battery value chain, and strengthen positioning in a rapidly evolving EV infrastructure market.
Conference agenda key topics
Aligning charging rollout with battery lifecycle economics
Examining charging speeds, thermal exposure, and usage patterns influencing degradation, residual value, second-life screening, and end-of-life timing.
Managed charging supporting grid performance and battery health
Exploring smart charging, load management, and storage integration reducing peak demand while limiting stress factors linked to accelerated aging.
Battery health data pipelines linking charging operations to reuse decisions
Assessing operational signals and available BMS or telematics data enabling standardized evaluation, grading, and routing into second-life applications.
Traceability and safe handling streamlining end-of-life workflows
Understanding identification, discharge status, and chain-of-custody data reducing safety risk, supporting sorting, and meeting regulatory reporting requirements.
Commercial models linking charging revenue with battery residual value
Analyzing leasing, take-back programs, warranties, second-life monetization, and recycling contracts improving lifecycle value capture.
Standards and compliance across charging deployment and battery end-of-life
Reviewing permitting, safety codes, reporting obligations, producer responsibility, and transport rules shaping integrated infrastructure strategies.
