EV & BATTERY EXPO 2026

EV & Battery Expo 2026: Powering South India's Mobility Revolution

Dates: February 12 – 14, 2026 Venue: Chennai Trade Centre, Chennai, India

The EV & Battery Expo 2026 is the premier B2B platform dedicated to showcasing the entire value chain of electric vehicles, battery technology, and charging infrastructure in South India. Co-located with the Renewable Energy Expo 2026, this dual event creates an integrated nexus for the future of clean energy and mobility

Why This Show is Crucial for B2B Stakeholders

The EV & Battery Expo is designed as a high-impact sourcing and networking event, essential for businesses driving the electric mobility transition:

• Integrated Sourcing Platform (Co-location Advantage): By running concurrently with the Renewable Energy Expo 2026, the show connects the demand side (EVs, battery manufacturing) directly with the supply side (solar, wind, energy storage, and charging-grid integration solutions). This is vital for manufacturers looking to source green energy for their factories and clean power for charging networks.
• Targeted B2B Audience: The event attracts key decision-makers, including Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), Tier 1 & 2 Auto Component Suppliers, Battery Pack Assemblers, Charging Infrastructure Developers, Fleet Operators, and Government Policy Makers. The visitor profile is strictly professional, ensuring high-quality leads and focused business development.
• South India Market Gateway: The expo serves as the definitive entry point to the rapidly expanding EV market in Southern India, a region experiencing the fastest growth in manufacturing and adoption.

Tamil Nadu's EV Ecosystem: The 'Detroit of Asia' Electrified

Chennai and Tamil Nadu are strategically positioned as the EV Capital of India, making the location a powerful draw for global exhibitors and buyers:

• Manufacturing Hub: Tamil Nadu is India's traditional automotive powerhouse (the 'Detroit of Asia'), hosting major global auto and component manufacturers. It currently produces over 70% of India's electric two-wheelers and is attracting massive investments (over ₹24,000 crore) into the EV and battery value chain.
• Government Policy: The Tamil Nadu EV Policy 2023 provides strong incentives for EV manufacturing, components, cell technology, and charging infrastructure, actively supporting the electrification of commercial and public transport fleets.
• Skilled Workforce & Infrastructure: The state boasts an established auto-ancillary ecosystem, deep-sea ports for exports, and a large, skilled talent pool, providing a robust base for EV and battery gigafactories.

The Co-located Advantage: Renewable Energy Expo 2026

Co-locating the EV & Battery Expo with the Renewable Energy Expo at the Chennai Trade Centre provides synergistic benefits for both exhibitors and visitors:

Advantage for Exhibitors

• Complete Value Chain Exposure: Showcase products to attendees from both mobility (EV components, battery packs) and energy (solar, storage, microgrids).
• Optimized Investment: Maximize brand visibility and lead generation by tapping into two high-growth, interlinked industries with a single stall investment.
• Increased Footfall: Benefit from the combined visitor attendance, expected to be a substantial number of trade visitors (previous editions in this segment have seen total footfalls in the range of over 10,000 for such specialized B2B events).

Visitors Benefits

• Holistic Sourcing: Find EV charging solutions and the clean energy source to power them (PV panels, battery storage).
• Enhanced Networking: Connect with a wider pool of professionals, including automotive, energy, power, and utility sectors. Visitors can expect over 200 exhibiting companies from across India and beyond. 
• Knowledge Synergy: Attend combined conference sessions covering EV integration with the smart grid and renewable energy storage.

The EV & Battery Expo 2026 is where the future of mobility meets the future of energy. Secure your presence to capitalize on South India's burgeoning EV revolution.
