Event Description
WAE Technologies is a world-leading technology and engineering business committed to the realisation of a decarbonised future. A world leader in electrification and energy storage across a range of sectors, including motorsport, automotive and off-highway, it was acquired by the Fortescue Metals Group (the world's fourth largest iron ore producer) in 2022. The off-highway sector accounts for 20% of the world’s emissions - for Fortescue, this equates to emissions comparable to the whole of France. Together, WAE and Fortescue are dedicated to delivering zero emissions in heavy mining, through the electrification of haul trucks, trains, and more, by 2030.
Join us to hear how a company with its roots in motorsport is delivering on this massive challenge!
Doors open 6pm, with refreshments upon arrival.
