We are pleased to invite you to the ZEFES 3rd Stakeholder Symposium, taking place on 25 February 2026 in Zeebrugge, Belgium, marking a milestone in the electrification of intermodal and cross-border freight transport.
Hosted by Procter & Gamble (P&G) in collaboration with ECS, the Symposium will bring together industry leaders, logistics operators, vehicle manufacturers, infrastructure developers, and policy stakeholders to explore Europe’s readiness for electrified heavy-duty transport. The event will highlight the latest results from the EU-funded ZEFES project, which is deploying battery electric (BEV) and fuel cell (FCEV) heavy-duty trucks across strategic TEN-T corridors.
