MADRID, 21 Sep. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Business Association for the Development and Promotion of Electric Vehicles (Aedive) and the Association of Electric Energy Companies (Aeléc) have signed a collaboration agreement to promote electric mobility in Spain, according to a statement.
One of the first objectives of this agreement will be to create a working group to develop an argument that helps to promote real knowledge on the part of society, administrations, the company and the media on electric mobility.
According to Aedive and Aeléc, some of the topics on which both associations will “shed light” will be the efficiency of electric motors, electric vehicle consumption, maintenance and utilization costs (euro per kilometer) compared to conventional vehicles; the emissions, the development and deployment of infrastructures, as well as the opportunities for industrial growth.
“The electric vehicle is sustainable mobility, because it is the only zero emission vehicle in the propulsion, but also and above all it is energy efficiency and a fundamental tool for the promotion of renewable energies, energy storage and distributed generation from the perspective of the V2G “, said the managing director of Aedive, Arturo Pérez de Lucia.
De Lucia said that electric vehicle is an “effective alternative” to respond to the mobility of more than 80% of the population, so it must be transferred to society “appropriate” messages that value its development in a world every Once more electrified and do it in a “climate of collaboration” with those agents that can provide synergies.
For its part, the general director of Aeléc, Paloma Sevilla, stressed the “need” to have a sufficient infrastructure for recharging on public roads, both in cities and in the road network.
He also indicated that Spain should position itself at the level of the main European countries in the development of a recharging infrastructure network that is part of a national strategy to boost the electric vehicle.
Both associations agree in this way to affirm that policies and collaborations in the public-private sphere are necessary to guarantee the necessary deployment of this infrastructure.
