What AEDIVE does

AEDIVE (Asociación Empresarial para el Desarrollo e Impulso de la Movilidad Eléctrica) is a non-profit business association founded in April 2010 in Madrid, Spain, that represents the entire electric mobility value chain across Spain and Portugal. With a 7-person team led by Director General Arturo Pérez de Lucia and a Board of Directors drawn from senior executives at Tesla, Iberdrola, Endesa, Nissan, Robert Bosch, Wallbox, Phoenix Contact, Silence, and Circontrol, AEDIVE brings together nearly 300 member companies spanning vehicle manufacturers, charging infrastructure operators, mobility service providers, battery manufacturers, banks, universities, certification bodies, fleet operators, and public institutions. The association functions as the recognized interlocutor between the EV industry and Spanish public administrations at central, regional, and local levels, and serves as Spain's official representative within E-MOBILITY EUROPE.

Its core offerings center on regulatory advocacy, business networking, and knowledge dissemination rather than technology products. Key assets include the annual CEVE Congress, the Anuario de la Movilidad Eléctrica (four editions published), a Calculadora de Ayudas digital tool, technical guides (battery safety, municipal charging deployment), the AC-lerando public awareness campaign, the Mobilities for EU initiative, and a newsletter reaching more than 56,000 professionals. Partnerships with Randstad Spain (talent), FEMP/RECI (municipal deployment), Move2Future (R&D agenda-setting), and Alliance Inercia (co-founder) extend AEDIVE's reach across labor, municipal, and European policy domains.

AEDIVE generates revenue primarily through tiered annual membership dues — €1,200 for microenterprises, €1,800 for SMEs, and €3,000 for large enterprises — plus a one-time €1,300 entrance fee, all VAT-exempt under Spanish law (Law 17/2012). The association also draws institutional support from MITECO and co-funding from ERDF/FEDER programs, and benefits from CEVE Congress sponsorships. Its go-to-market is community-led: membership is the primary acquisition channel, amplified by the newsletter, events, working groups, and institutional partnerships rather than paid sales or marketing.

Others

• POLIS Network: European network of cities and regions on transport innovation. Overlaps with AEDIVE on municipal-level EV infrastructure deployment and EU policy dialogue but represents public authorities rather than private industry.

Broad incumbents

• Eurelectric: The umbrella sector association for the European electricity industry, covering EV-related policy (eMobility working groups) and grid/infrastructure lobbying. A broader incumbent with overlap in charging, electrification, and energy-transition advocacy.
• AVERE – The European Association for Electromobility: Pan-European umbrella body for electromobility of which AEDIVE is the Spanish national member. Overlaps on EV advocacy, policy, and events but operates at EU scale across many national associations rather than a single country.
• VDA (Verband der Automobilindustrie): German automotive industry association with deep resources on EV policy, R&D, and international positioning. Comparable as a national-industry trade body but materially larger, more diversified, and focused on automotive OEMs (ICE + EV) rather than electrification-specific agenda.

Regional players

• Charge – The EV Trade Association (UK): UK trade body for the EV charging sector with policy, public-affairs, and member-service focus. Functionally equivalent peer operating in a different (UK) geography with similar member-funded association mechanics.

Direct peers

• ChargeUp Europe: European trade association for EV charging infrastructure operators and service providers, focused on policy, interoperability, and grid integration. Highly comparable: trade-body model, charging-infrastructure focus, and shared member base with AEDIVE.
• AIVE (Associazione Italiana Veicoli Elettrici): Italian business association for the electric vehicle value chain with advocacy, networking, and event offerings. Closest national peer to AEDIVE: same business model (member-funded industry association) operating in a parallel Southern-European EV market.
• Move2Future (Plataforma Tecnológica Española de Automoción y Movilidad): Spanish technology platform for automotive and mobility R&D. AEDIVE lists as a member; both organizations share a national Spanish EV/mobility mission, with Move2Future focusing on R&D agenda-setting versus AEDIVE's broader industry-association remit.
