A programme designed to turn ambition into action

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.
In 2026, Drive to Zero offered a programme built around a central question: how can decarbonisation goals be transformed into concrete, funded and operational projects on the ground?


The major events that marked the edition

2035: How to transform climate ambition into operational infrastructure?

How can we turn this climate ambition into an infrastructural reality that is economically sustainable and meets the set objectives within the given timeframe?
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?
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?

Inspiring speeches to open the debates


The 2026 edition of Drive to Zero was marked by the presence of two leading figures to open the days of the show.
The first day, Philippe Tabarot, Minister for Transport, delivered the opening address, kicking off the event and reaffirming the importance of the transition to decarbonized mobility. 
The second day, Clément Beaune, High Commissioner for Strategy and Planning took the floor in turn during the opening address, providing his insights on the challenges and prospects of tomorrow's mobility.

Two major focuses to explore the solutions of tomorrow


The program for the trade show was structured around two main themes, Territories in Action And Freight to Zerooffering participants a comprehensive program of conferences, feedback and discussions on the challenges of decarbonized mobility.

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.

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
A variety of formats to accelerate discussions and projects

Beyond the main plenary sessions, Drive to Zero 2026 featured exhibitor workshops focusing on “Test & Adapt” and “Deploy & Operate”, startup pitches and operational feedback sessions to explore each challenge in greater depth.
Infrastructure, energy, regulatory frameworks, industrial innovations, new uses and business models: a comprehensive overview to support decision-making and accelerate the operational implementation of your projects.
