Organized by Yoichi Hori (y.hori@ieee.or.jp); Giuseppe Buja (buja@die.unipd.it).

Future key technologies to realize the new EV society will be discussed. Future vehicles must run by electricity and will be linked to the electric power system. The range of one battery charge will lose its conventional meaning, and it may mean the distance within which we can feel easy if we are apart from the infrastructure. There, super-capacitors play an important role instead of batteries to need long recharging time. Wireless power transfer system with high efficiency should be required. Finally, advanced motion control technique utilizing advantages of electric motors is the key technology to improve energy consumption as well as driving safety.

Invited panelists are:
