JOINT HEAT TREAT/IMAT KEYNOTE SESSION OPPORTUNITIES IN THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE WORLD TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER | : – : P.M. Within the last 5 years, electric vehicles (EVs) have begun to transition into the mainstream of vehicle production and sales. Given the increased public support for controlling climate-a ecting emissions, it can be reasonably projected that this change to EVs will continue to increase. As an example, while currently occupying only 2% of global new vehicle sales, it is estimated that EV sales will grow to over 50% by 2050. Correspondingly, the number of internal combustion (IC) engine-powered vehicles will decrease. This shi will cause a fundamental change in the amount of business as well as the way heattreaters conduct their business. DR. JAMES M.
