North Rhine-Westphalia:
Model Region for Electric Mobility


The German State of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) is one of the most important automotive locations in Europe today. As the German government has set the goal of putting one million electric and hybrid vehicles on the road by 2020, the future of electric mobility has already begun in the model region of NRW. About 150 institutes and private enterprises in NRW have been identified as relevant players in the field of EV engineering. Several major automobile manufacturers such as Ford, Opel and Daimler have production facilities in the state and every year about 700,000 passenger cars and commercial vehicles come off the assembly lines in Cologne, Bochum and Düsseldorf.

"Why do I read Site Selection?" 


As a new, and now regular, reader of Site Selection, I wanted to offer my compliments and observations. Your magazine is one of the few that I read from cover to cover. Your subjects are interesting and timely, your text is concise and actionable, and your advertisers supply useful information. Your layout of artwork and photographs grab my attention and supplement your text. Overall, Site Selection provides me with engaging, enjoyable-to-read information for the work that I do. In case others have missed the opportunity to say this, thank you for your efforts."
