Work is scheduled to start at 14.30. The agenda of the meeting with the planned interventions is attached. The workshop aims to collect, analyze and disseminate information about the state of research and technological developments, the market, regulations and policies on electric, hybrid and fuel cell vehicles.

The International Energy Agency is an international intergovernmental organization founded in 1974 by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) in order to facilitate the coordination of energy policies of member countries to ensure the stability of energy supplies in order to support economic growth.

Recently the IEA has extended its mandate towards the direction of sustainable development, also dealing with environmental protection and climate change: in this direction are included the meetings of the “Technology Collaboration Program”, a technological collaboration program to support the work independent groups of international experts that allow governments and industries worldwide to conduct programs and projects on a wide range of energy technologies and related issues. The IEA considers these meetings a unique resource for the global transition towards a cleaner energy future.
