eMPROVE
Project long title
Innovative solutions for the industrialization of electrified vehicles
Project description
The flagship project eMPROVE- which is supported by Klima- und Energiefonds - aims at innovative solutions for the industrialization of electrified vehicles, increasing both energy and cost efficiency, with particular focus on possibilities for future industrial mass production. This will be accomplished by improving dedicated vehicle components (e.g. transmission, storage and energy systems), by using novel methods, processes and materials for new components (e.g. for battery housing, gear box and thermoelectric heating), and by integrating requirements and recommendations regarding recycling and second life of battery systems into the development and product cycle. Eventually, two tangible integrated demonstrators, a PHEV full vehicle and a modularized battery pack system, will show the functionality of technological solutions of eMPROVE. By this, eMPROVE significantly contributes to the reduction of the main barriers of electric mobility, i.e. range anxiety and high vehicle prices.
