The timing couldn’t be better.

The second-largest automotive market in the world is taking active measurements to overcome barriers and realizing a future away from fossil fuels, creating a lucrative business platform for Danish e-mobility sub-suppliers.

Producers of electric vehicles are ramping up production

It is safe to say that battery-powered vehicles are taking over the automobile market. USA has experienced an 83% growth of the electric vehicles sold over the last 3 years, and 7% of all new sold cars were electric vehicles. In the latest years, the US government incentivized the growth in market volume through favourable federal EV tax credits and the Clean Vehicle Credit under the Inflation Reduction Act. Furthermore, larger federal investments in infrastructure, including EV charging stations, are further boosting electrification and increased demand for electric and hybrid vehicles. Suppliers to the car manufacturers will continue to create value as some components will change as the automotive world is increasingly defined by electric powertrains and digitization.

What to expect?

The programme offers an opportunity for Danish sub-suppliers in the e-mobility industry to gain extensive knowledge by meeting the most knowledgeable market experts and potential customers and building partnerships with key US stakeholders.

Programme elements:

  • North America’s largest Electric and Hybrid Vehicle Technology Expo
  • Meetings with public and private stakeholders
  • B2B meetings
  • Site visit at Factory Zero - General Motors EV assembly facility
