Project Summary
As electric machine technology emerges, new technologies can provide innovative solutions for the electric car sector. The EU-funded EM-TECH project will develop innovative electric machine technology solutions for automotive traction. The project will focus on passenger car and van applications to provide competitive costs and significant reduction of motor energy loss during vehicle operation, and to decrease the rare earth content, including implementing magnet recycling solutions.
The solutions will include innovative direct and active cooling designs, virtual sensing functionalities, enhanced machine control, electric gearing and digital twin-based optimisation. They will feature embedded systematic consideration of life cycle analysis and life cycle costing aspects right from the early design stages.
The project consortium is composed by 10 European organizations and coordinated by AVL List GmbH, Austria.
Project Start: 01.01.2023, 36 Months
