World Electric Vehicle Association (WEVA)

Launched in 1990, the World Electric Vehicle Association (WEVA) is a non-profit organization with the objective of promoting the research, development and deployment of electric drive vehicles. WEVA organizes the International Electric Vehicle Symposium (EVS) series, the World Electric Vehicle Journal, and bestows the E-Visionary Award upon cities that are leading the charge in electric drive promotion and deployment across the world.

WEVA consists of three regional organizations - the Electric Drive Transportation Association (EDTA), the European Association for Battery, Hybrid and Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (AVERE) and the Electric Vehicle Association of Asia Pacific (EVAAP). These three international associations promote the electric vehicle concepts and policies in their respective regions of North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific.
