TEP Birmingham is delighted to welcome delegates from the upcoming Motor Transport Decarbonisation Summit, a prestigious two-day event returning to Birmingham and bringing together senior leaders from across the UK’s commercial vehicle road freight sector on 7 and 8 October 2026.
The Summit provides a valuable platform for industry stakeholders to review progress towards transport decarbonisation, share best practice, and showcase the latest innovations helping to accelerate the transition to a cleaner, more sustainable freight industry.
As part of the programme, the first day of the Summit on 7 October, the Study Day – will again be hosted at TEP Birmingham, giving delegates a unique opportunity to experience the region’s growing decarbonisation ecosystem first-hand.
As part of the Study Day, delegates will be able to tour the Birmingham Energy Innovation Centre, meet the team from pioneering charging infrastructure company Voltempo, and witness their industry-leading Hyper Charger technology in action. Delegates will also have the chance to view a range of electric commercial vehicles, being brought to TEP Birmingham specifically for the event.
The unique setting of TEP Birmingham, which is home to a range of high-growth clean tech companies, on-site refuelling, energy, grid and data access, plus experts from local authority, university and investor networks, offers a rare chance to foster collaboration between academia, technology innovators, infrastructure providers and fleet operators.
TEP Birmingham’s role as host reflects its growing reputation as a centre for sustainable innovation and collaboration, providing a space where emerging technologies can be developed, demonstrated and deployed.
The Motor Transport Decarbonisation Summit has become an important forum for organisations committed to reducing carbon emissions from road freight and commercial transport. By bringing together decision-makers, innovators and practitioners, the event enables meaningful conversations about the challenges and opportunities facing the sector. The second day of the Summit will be hosted at Millenium Point and offering a packed agenda of experts and discussion across a range of topics including the implications of devolution, battery health, affordability and policy discussions.
Commenting on the event, David Horsfall, Director of Property & Sustainability, said:
“We’re excited to again play host to this important industry event and welcome delegates to TEP Birmingham. It provides motor transport industry colleagues a rare chance to see all parts of the decarbonisation ecosystem on show, from the academics working at the leading edge of research on tomorrow’s technology to the commercial fleets and charging infrastructure experts Voltempo, who are providing the critical technology to power the decarbonised fleet of the future through their HyperCharger rapid charging solution.”
The transition to low-carbon commercial transport is one of the most significant challenges and opportunities facing the road freight sector. Events such as the Motor Transport Decarbonisation Summit play a vital role in bringing together the expertise, technology and partnerships needed to turn ambition into action.
TEP Birmingham looks forward to welcoming delegates and showcasing the innovative research, technologies and businesses that are helping to shape the future of sustainable transport.
