His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco with FIM-Europe Vice President Michel Turk
Michel Turk, Vice President of FIM-Europe, joined the 10th edition of EVER Monaco, which was held from March 31st to April 2nd at the Grimaldi Forum, in Monaco. The event, which featured scientific lectures, round table sessions, and international meetings on Ecological Vehicles and Renewable Energies (EVER), also hosted an exhibition of the main manufacturers of 2- and 4-wheeled vehicles using renewable energies.
The goal of EVER 2015 was to increase awareness about the development of renewable energies and improved energy efficiency.
Many leaders around the world have spurred their countries into a sustainable development policy, particularly in relation to “clean mobility,” and are targeting carbon neutrality by the middle of the century. In China, there are already more than 150 million electric-powered motorcycles registered.
For FIM Europe, as the shift to electric power and renewal energy is increasing worldwide, and renewable technologies improving fast, this global movement toward ecologically sustainable mobility presents an opportunity to create in the close future new “clean” motorcycle championships, in addition to the existing championships.
During the EVER 2015, the Groupement Européen de la Moto Electrique/European Group of Electric Motorcycle (GEME) was founded.
Through this organized efforts of GEME, the FIM Europe can help build a better environment for future generations and be a leading partner in clean motorcycle sports, so that governments will no longer stop our sport and close tracks or hinder the entry of motorcycle world championships because of noise and/or air pollution.
