Edition: July 2024
The Parkside building in Horsham played host to our first electric vehicle event on 24 May.
Aimed at individuals and commercial vehicle buyers, the event showcased all aspects of sustainable and cleaner travel.
The event allowed visitors to browse, sit in and have test drives of popular models of electric cars, vans and commercial vehicles.
Presentations from industry professionals discussed the benefits of electric vehicles, the charging infrastructure and the practicalities for the individual driver as well as for businesses looking to electrify their fleet.
Expert advice was available from a variety of suppliers of electric vehicles and related electric vehicle charging infrastructure including charge point operators, installers and associated businesses.
The event was funded by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs’ Air Quality Grant.
The event was put on in partnership with charging infrastructure company Connected Kerb, event organisers Let’s Experience Electric, the Energy Saving Trust and West Sussex County Council to help support carbon neutral goals.
