Development of electromobility

A short journey through time

In Germany, e-mobility is no longer a marginal phenomenon. German automakers now produce electric vehicles for the mass market and Tesla has announced plans to build a gigafactory in Berlin-Brandenburg. In many areas of society, the technological shift away from internal combustion engines to electrified propulsion is becoming increasingly apparent. Increasing numbers of electric vehicles are on the road, charging stations dot the cityscape, and after many decades, production factories no longer make engines but batteries. Globally, and in Germany as well, electric car registrations are increasing. In 2019 alone, 62,281 electric cars were newly registered in Germany. As a result of the Paris climate protection agreement entering into force, CO2 emissions in the transport sector are expected to drop significantly. For the EU, the 95 g CO2/km target will apply to newly registered passenger cars from 2021. Since this agreement at the latest, a rethink in vehicle drive technology has been taking place among all stakeholders.

Concluding assessment of the development in Germany

Nowadays, electromobility is no longer a completely new technology, yet we are still in a very dynamic market environment. Possible lower forecasts, which seem much more achievable, seem to be good for the cause so as not to disappoint customer confidence. The clear failure to achieve the one million target does not cast the federal government in a good light in terms of its planning and implementation, regardless of what has actually been achieved and implemented. Positive developments thus quickly move into the shadows. True to the motto “less is sometimes more.”

If we assume the set target of 6 to 10 million electric vehicles, the charging infrastructure is all the more important and will continue to be a key component in the future. Lessons learned from past developments show that the framework conditions for a suitable charging infrastructure must be created at an early stage. Large financial investments are required to meet the planned development. In addition to the public provision of charging points, it is private charging points in particular that must be increasingly and more strongly promoted. The NPE states that around 85% of all charging will take place at the home or workplace. If the forecasts come true by 2030, around 2.4 to 3.5 million private charging points will have to be installed as early as 2025. This shows an acute need for action, which requires sophisticated concepts and ideas in implementation.

Information security at the highest level

With TISAX, the ENX Association offers a standardised platform for the mutual acceptance of information security assessments in the automotive industry on behalf of the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA).

ISMS for Automotive Suppliers (TISAX)

In today’s interconnected world, information security is key, especially in the automotive industry. The introduction of an ISMS in accordance with TISAX is crucial for the security of critical information. In addition, being part of the TISAX exchange programme is a prerequisite for business relationships within the industry.
