Representing Industry, Karl-Maria Grugl, Head of Regulatory Affairs at KTM and Enrico Mayrhofer, Head of Regulatory Affairs of Piaggio Group - both members of STAN4SWAP consortium - pointed out during the talk that: “harmonized policy measures at local and EU member state level are necessary to enable the industry to predict the market and to offer tailored solutions at the appropriate time and quantity”, and “Swappable battery is sustainable urban mobility example that can be significantly boosted with the definition of a EU standard”. Therefore, “STAN4SWAP proposes to develop a robust standardization roadmap to support decarbonization especially at the urban level”.
