Opening keynote by Stephanie Kodish, Senior Global Director for CALSTART’s Drive to Zero. Kickstarting the Global MOU Summit with a bold vision—where we stand in the ZE-MHDV transition. What’s working? What’s next? Let’s explore real-world success stories, tackle the challenges head-on, and leave with one powerful idea to drive change. 

A fast-paced session using thought-provoking questions to warm up, foster connections, build shared understanding, and encourage reflection through rotating pairs and group discussions. 

This is one of a two session series which aims to equip policymakers with the tools, data, and strategies needed to implement Global MOU-aligned Electric Vehicle Availability Standards (EVAS) in their countries, including savings estimation, economic benefits, and tailored technical assistance for EVAS adoption.

This session will provide practical insights into developing charging infrastructure for ZE-MHDVs, featuring expert presentations on successful grid strategies, renewable energy integration, and long-term infrastructure planning, with a focus on equipping participants to develop their own implementation plans.

This session will provide policymakers and companies with a comprehensive understanding of Residual Value Guarantees (RVGs), focusing on the economic rationale, benefits, and practical implementation strategies, while offering tailored technical assistance for RVG adoption.

This interactive workshop challenges participants to strategize the integration of renewable energy, charging infrastructure, and grid stability for ZE-MDHVs, with insights from guest speakers on real-world renewable integration in the sector.

This session examines the decarbonization challenges faced by small and medium fleet enterprises and presents tailored solutions, strategies, and actionable insights to facilitate their transition to zero-emission technologies, informed by expertise from global fleet electrification specialists.

Join this hands-on session to explore the transition to zero-emission construction logistics, focusing on the technological, regulatory, and financial strategies needed to overcome barriers and accelerate the adoption of clean technologies in construction and off-road machinery.

This hands-on session, led by fleet electrification experts, will provide fleet owners and operators with actionable strategies, real-world case studies, and tailored advice to navigate the challenges of transitioning to zero-emission vehicles.

This workshop will explore the transition to zero-emission buses, featuring case studies such as India’s successful fleet electrification. It will offer insights into strategies, challenges, and solutions for sustainable public transport.

California has pioneered bold policies for zero-emission trucks—but what lessons can the world learn? Join us for a fast-paced talk on the triumphs, challenges, and game-changing insights shaping the future of clean trucking.

Heavy-duty trucking has long been seen as difficult to decarbonize. But with battery production ramping up and charging infrastructure scaling, the economics are shifting. Suddenly, electric long-distance applications are poised to have the best total cost of ownership. The real question is thus not if the transition will happen, but how fast manufacturers, infrastructure providers and fleets will get there – and what can help speed up the process. Join Andreas Kammel as he unpacks the latest data on cost curves, the role of fast charging, and why there’s no “plan c” – it’s plan BEV on the road to zero.

This engaging session combines real-world insights with targeted networking to accelerate ZE-MHDV adoption. The endorser spotlight series will feature dynamic five-minute case studies where Global MOU endorsers and knowledge partners share key lessons, successes, and challenges in transitioning to zero-emission vehicles. Interactive Q&A sessions will ensure practical takeaways and meaningful discussions. Following this, a structured matchmaking session will connect endorsers, countries, investors, and knowledge partners in “speed-dating-style” networking to foster collaboration, investment, and policy alignment across three tracks: endorser-to-endorser, endorser-to-country, and endorser-to-investor. A facilitator will guide rotations to maximize impact.

A storytelling exercise that deepens connections by inviting participants to share pivotal life experiences, fostering trust, empathy, and understanding in a structured yet personal way.

Milence, a joint venture of Daimler Truck, TRATON GROUP, and Volvo Group, is driving the future of zero-emission freight with plans to deploy 1,700 high-performance public charging points across Europe by 2027.
