The Electric Vehicle Association of the Philippines (EVAP) is hosting the 10th Philippine Electric Vehicle Summit (PEVS) set on October 20-21 at the SMX Convention Center Manila.
To kick off the 10th PEVS held together with the Manila Electric Company (MERALCO) and in partnership with the Department of Energy (DOE) and Nissan Philippines Inc., the EV Owners Society (EVOS) will be holding a motorcade this morning showcasing the latest means of electric mobility around the Mall of Asia (MOA) Complex.
EVAP president Edmund Araga said that EVAP will be unveiling a new logo during the event.
He said, “This is the right time for us to rebrand to reflect EVAP’s vision of a modern and electrified road transport in the Philippines. We also wanted to reaffirm our commitment to advance the country’s transition to EVs by advocating and supporting enabling policies, rules and regulations to accelerate their deployment in the public and private sectors.”
The recently promulgated EVIDA Implementing Rules and Regulations (EVIDA-IRRs) will be presented by the Department of Energy (DOE) during the event, together with the other concerned government agencies, namely the DILG, DOST, DOTr, DTI, ERC and LTFRB discussing their specific roles in the implementation of EVIDA. The 10th PEVS will also recognize personalities and institutions for their invaluable contribution to the advancement of electric mobility in the Philippines through the conferment of the E-mobility Awards.
