WASHINGTON--(AutomotiveWire)--July 30, 2001--The Electric Vehicle
Association of the Americas (EVAA) will host a four-day conference and
exposition to stimulate exchange of technical information and discuss
the latest technological developments in the electric transportation
industry in Sacramento, Calif., Dec. 11-14, 2001.

The event, "EVAA Electric Transportation Industry Conference:
Battery, Hybrid and Fuel Cell Technologies," will focus on the
historic battery and hybrid-electric vehicle technologies as well as
fuel cells, the "new frontier" for electric transportation
technologies.

"From the path to the commercialization of automotive fuel cell
products to the growth of the hybrid market and the future of
battery-electric vehicles, the Electric Transportation Industry
Conference will be the premier event for debating, learning about, and
showcasing electric transportation," said EVAA Executive Director
Kateri Callahan.

"This year's exposition will offer attendees unrivaled opportunities
to see the latest technologies and products comprising the entire
'family' of electric vehicles."

This year's EVAA conference will be an expansion of the North
American Electric Vehicle and Infrastructure (NAEVI) series of years
past which traditionally included panel sessions on battery and
hybrid-electric vehicle innovations.

The new event aims to tap into worldwide interest in fuel cell
electric vehicles and the conference agenda has been designed to
appeal to and attract both experienced and new industry players.
Topics to be covered during the four-day event include:

--overcoming institutional barriers to battery-electric vehicles.

--realizing the potential of fuel cell electric vehicles through
  government partnerships.

--building demand for hybrid-electric vehicles beyond California.

A highlight to this year's event is the conference-sponsored site
visit to the California Fuel Cell Partnership on Friday, Dec. 14.
Attendees will be able to participate in small group lectures, witness
infrastructure demonstrations and take part in a "Ride and Drive" of
several different electric transportation options.

The three "core" days of the Electric Transportation Industry
Conference and Exhibition, Dec. 12-14, will draw hundreds of
representatives from the major auto companies and energy providers,
electric vehicle component suppliers, fleet customers and government
officials from federal, state and local agencies.

All events for the Electric Transportation Industry Conference will be
held at the Sacramento Convention Center, in downtown Sacramento.

Hosted by EVAA, the event is conducted in partnership with the
California Air Resources Board; California Energy Commission;
California Fuel Cell Partnership; Edison Electric Institute; EPRI; the
Environmental Research Institute of Michigan; the U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE); the U.S.  Department of Transportation (DOT); the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Fuel Cell Council.

EVAA is the industry association working to advance electric vehicles
and supporting infrastructure through policy, information and market
development initiatives in the United States, and to serve as the
Americas' representative to the World Electric Vehicle Association.

EVAA members include auto companies and other vehicle manufacturers,
electric utilities, EV component suppliers, research institutions and
government agencies. The association serves as the industry's source
of information about electric vehicles.
