E-mobility in Europe is still on the rise.

The energy transition has reached a crucial point. The steady growth in power generated by renewable sources of energy is, in turn, giving rise to greater demand for effective grid stabilization solutions.

Following recent elections, Germany is in the process of forming a new government, and the direction of energy policy is set to evolve.

The energy transition is advancing rapidly on a global scale. In many places, electricity from renewable sources of energy is no longer the exception; it is now the rule.

The time for hybrid power plants has come. The combination of power generation from various renewable sources of energy, such as the sun, wind and hydropower, and smart storage technology bring a clear benefit: They allow the cost-efficient integration of electricity from renewable sources into the energy system.

The smarter E Europe 2025, taking place earlier in the year than usual, from May 7–9, 2025 at Messe München, has the motto “Accelerating Integrated Energy Solutions”.

Our electricity is becoming greener and greener – and power generation is becoming more and more decentralized and volatile.

Germany is transforming its energy sector with dynamic electricity tariffs and smart meters under the Digitization of the Energy Transition Law.

Electric cars are capable of much more than “simply” being quiet and emissions-free. Equipped with bidirectional charging technology, they can store electricity and feed it back into the grid later.

The energy world of tomorrow is being built today – and it will be more sustainable, more intelligent and more integrated than ever before.

One award, five categories, 15 winners and an abundance of innovative and intelligent ideas, products, services and projects:

The worldwide boom in renewable energy continues unabated and is gaining momentum.

After three packed exhibition days featuring inspiring conferences and forums, Europe’s largest platform for the energy industry has once again broken various records

The worldwide boom in renewable energy continues unabated. According to REN21's latest Global Status Report 2024, last year alone, 536 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy capacity was installed worldwide.

1 award, 5 categories, 15 winners: Just before the start of The smarter E Europe, the continent’s largest alliance of exhibitions for the energy industry, the winners of this year’s The smarter E AWARD were honored at an official ceremony this evening.

The age of the combustion engine is coming to an end. Electromobility is becoming established all over the world.

Around the world, e-mobility is in the fast lane. This is also reflected in the number of exhibitors and their activities in and around the international exhibition Power2Drive Europe: More

The energy industry is undergoing a radical transformation. Renewable sources of energy have become increasingly profitable in recent years and are now the most economically viable solution for generating electricity

In the coming years, e-mobility is set to play an increasingly important role in the energy transition. But it’s about much more than driving on climate-neutral electricity from renewable sources: The batteries of electric vehicles can be used as temporary storage.

Electric mobility plays an important role in the German energy transition and in achieving Germany's climate targets.

The battery industry is steadily moving forward: With the increasing electrification of vehicles and the expansion of renewable sources of energy, the global demand for batteries is growing. New technologies, as well as strategic and geopolitical decisions, will impact the battery and electromobility sectors, creating both opportunities and challenges.

Energy suppliers with a comprehensive range of energy efficiency measures will be awarded in the energy efficiency category at the Energiewende Award ceremony.

The smarter E AWARD moves into the next round and has been completely revamped. From December 1, 2023, companies will have the chance to submit their innovations or projects and compete for The smarter E AWARD – for the first time in five categories.

Through parking lot PV, there is huge potential here to generate green electricity and make dual use of sealed surfaces. Read more here.

Renewable energies, energy storage and e-mobility play a central role in achieving climate protection targets. As efficient and environmentally friendly mobility solutions, electric vehicles have an important contribution to make to the energy transition.

Power2Drive Europe 2023 provided a picture of tomorrow’s mobility and its role in future smart energy systems.

After three exhibition days and inspiring conferences and forums, Europe’s largest platform for the energy industry publishes a record success...

The potential of renewable energies is vast. However, only a fraction of this potential is being used, and almost 80 percent of the energy required worldwide is still being generated from fossil fuels.

Debut of the Power2Drive AWARD: This evening, innovators in the field of electromobility and charging infrastructure were honored for the first time on a big stage in the International Congress Center München (ICM).
