Drive to Zero 2026 programming


As all mobility stakeholders converge on the need to decarbonize the sector, the solutions required to scale up can only be built through a multi‑party approach.

Drive to Zero’s 2026 programme was designed around a central question: how can we move from announcements and ambitions to concrete projects that are financed, implemented, and sustainably deployed in the field?

Pitch et intervenants de plénière Drive to Zero

Focus on:

Territories in action


Highlighting local initiatives by giving a voice to municipalities, departments, etc., that are experimenting with and deploying new forms of decarbonized and inclusive mobility.

Focus on:

Freight to Zero


A series of conferences and workshops on the challenges of decarbonizing freight and logistics: Electrification of road transport - Urban logistics - Freight intermodality


The major 2026 plenary sessions

2035 : How Can We Turn Climate Ambition into Operational Infrastructure ?


How can we transform this climate ambition into real, economically sustainable infrastructure that meets the targets within the required timelines?

Financing and operating infrastructures: public management models, economic frameworks, and service continuity


Between public management, public‑service delegations, hybrid partnerships, and innovative financing models, how can we ensure continuous and accessible service across all territories without undermining the economic balance of the mobility system?

Decarbonizing Roads : Materials, Experimentation and Maintenance


How can we design roads that are more sustainable, more resilient and less carbon‑intensive throughout their entire life cycle, and demonstrate that better‑maintained infrastructure can also help reduce the overall environmental footprint of mobility?

The territories: where the transition really takes place


Part 1: Intermodality and inclusion: building an offer adapted to territorial realities
Part 2: Rural and peri-urban infrastructure: which models will last?

Public charging : from infrastructure to the reality of usage


Part 1: Deployment of publicly accessible charging infrastructure: assessment, challenges and prospects

Part 2: Public charging: how to align infrastructure deployment with usage and strengthen its acceptability?

Towards a decisive turning point for the electric truck?

FREIGHT TO ZERO SUMMIT / Conference presented in English


With sales of electrified heavy goods vehicles struggling to take off, what infrastructural, pricing, and regulatory levers can be activated to accelerate the transition?

Better, faster, cleaner: why do parcels travel more efficiently than people ? 

 

Can logistics become a true model for building faster, cleaner, and more resilient mobility systems at scale?

Made in Europe : Mastering the value chains of decarbonized mobility


How can “Made in Europe” be used as a lever for competitiveness, resilience and strategic coherence, so that Europe can sustainably embed its climate ambition in a controlled and robust industrial model?

Electric mobility : from ownership to usage, what models can broaden access?


How can we reconcile low-carbon mobility, ease of use, and the pleasure of individual driving through new vehicles?

New urban logistics spaces : organizing territories, structuring flows, accelerating the transition


From the production site to the delivery point, how can we ensure efficient and decarbonized logistics flows and structure coordination between shippers, carriers, urban logistics players and local authorities?
Beyond the major plenary sessions, Drive to Zero 2026 offers exhibitor workshops on the topics of "Testing & Adapting" and "Deploying & Operating", startup pitches and operational feedback to delve deeper into each issue.

Infrastructure, energy, regulatory frameworks, industrial innovations, new uses and economic models: a complete overview to secure your decisions and accelerate the operational implementation of your projects.
