Detailed description (English): Electrification is shaping the future of mobility, but its rollout in Spain is progressing at a slow pace. Global political, social, and economic uncertainty — including trade tensions and geopolitical conflicts — is compounded by the challenges Spain faces in this process: still-high prices, delays in the deployment of charging infrastructure, administrative complexity, and a lack of consumer confidence in the ability of electric vehicles to meet their mobility needs.
To address these challenges, the RACC Mobility Institute, in collaboration with Alinnea (a think tank based at IE University and supported by the European Climate Foundation), is organising a new edition of the Mobility Institute Talks as part of European Mobility Week 2025. The session will examine the present and future of mobility electrification in Spain, as well as the levers that can accelerate this transition.
Detailed description (original language): La electrificación marca el rumbo del futuro de la movilidad, pero su despliegue en España avanza a un ritmo lento. A la incertidumbre política, social y económica a nivel global —con tensiones comerciales y conflictos geopolíticos— se suman los obstáculos que afronta España en este proceso: precios todavía elevados, retrasos en el despliegue de la infraestructura de recarga, complejidad administrativa, y una falta de confianza del consumidor en la capacidad del vehículo eléctrico para satisfacer sus necesidades de movilidad.
Para abordar estos retos, el RACC Mobility Institute, en colaboraciónAlinnea (think tank con sede en IE University y apoyado por European Climate Foundation) , organiza una nueva edición de los Mobility Institute Talks en el marco de la Semana Europea de la Movilidad 2025. La sesión analizará el presente y el futuro de la electrificación de la movilidad en España, así como las palancas que pueden acelerar esta transición.
Target group(s): Urban mobility and Transport sector experts.
Objectives: (1) Disseminate the main findings and key insights of the report “Analysis of Electric Mobility in Spain: Current Status, Bottlenecks, and Recommendations to Increase Electric Vehicle Adoption,” produced by Alinnea, a Climate Working Group hosted by IE University, in collaboration with RACC.
(2) Facilitate a high-level discussion on the current landscape and future outlook of e-mobility in Spain with leading representatives from the country’s urban mobility sector.
