ICEM 2024

26th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ELECTRICAL MACHINES – ICEM 2024

We are happy to announce that Jenni Pippuri-Mäkeläinen from VTT is going to give a presentation on “European Targets and Experiences in Next Generation Traction Motor Development”, a joint result from the projects VOLTCAR, MAXIMA, ClimaFlux, HEFT and EM-TECH, at the “26th International Conference on Electrical Machines – ICEM2024”. 

If you are present in Torino and at the conference taking place from September 01 until September 04, join us on September 03 during the Industrial Session 2 from 14:20 until 16:00. We are looking forward to the exchange!

IAAPS with EM-TECH at TRA2024

The University of Bath and IAAPS Ltd team attended the Transport Research Arena 2024 conference in Dublin in April, as part of a broader presentation of Horizon Europe projects managed by Innovate UK with the EM-TECH project and a 3D printed prototype of the e-gear approach.

Footfall was very high during the first two days, with attendees from various sectors, including e-bikes, CNG-powered freight trains, agricultural vehicles, and high-performance passenger cars. Representatives from all four UK nations, Ireland, and Germany were also present. Consequently, many conversations were with people who found the e-gear interesting.

The 3D-printed prototype and the presentation complemented each other well, effectively explaining the technology and its applications. Despite the increasingly virtual world, a physical model that can be handled still attracts significant attention. The LED display and prototype were effective crowd magnets and were impressive features at the Innovate UK stand.

Attendees:

Prof. Vincent Zeng – Lecturer at University of Bath

Mr. Ryan Nicholls – IAAPS Ltd Business development manager

Mr. John Bond – IAAPS Ltd Business development manager

Author: Kristina Burke – IAAPS Ltd Business project manager

TRA2024: When and where to find EM-Tech

The EM-Tech project will participate to the upcoming TRA2024, don’t miss the opportunity to get in touch with the project partners, CINEA, the E-VOLVE cluster as well as EARPA and 2Zero.

Paper presentation: “Innovative e-motor technologies for e-axles and e-corners vehicle architectures enabling highly efficient and sustainable e-mobility”

The paper written by Bo Wang USR et. al. will be presented by Eric Armengaud on Monday, April 15 between 05:15 and 06:30 PM as part of the Session “Sustainable Mobility of People and Goods/Technical 2.2.5 Electric” in Hall 3C (Serpentine Hall). The paper is a joint result of the HighScape and the EM-Tech project and we are inviting you to join the presentation.

EC Lunchtime Session: “Towards zero emission vehicles: From batteries to demonstration”

The panel presentation, organized by CINEA is taking place at the EC Stand, Agora and takes place on Monday, April 15 starting from 12:30. The EM-Tech project will be presented as part of the E-VOLVE Cluster and we are looking forward to the exchange with the projects USER-CHI, eCharge4Drivers and the cluster BatteryHeroes.

Poster Presentation: “E-VOLVE Cluster: Increasing innovation efficiency to support the transition towards sustainable e-mobility”

The EM-Tech project is part of a joint publication from the E-VOLVE cluster, accepted for poster presentation. Join us on April 18 starting from 09:45 in Hall 8C – Poster Area – Simmonscourt Stage 4.

Innovate UK: IAAPS and EM-Tech

E-VOLVE Cluster Newsletter

The first 2024 edition of the E-VOLVE Cluster newsletter is out and we are inviting our network to have a read and register for the E-VOLVE Cluster webinar, taking place on March 15. You can find all information in the newsletter and of course on the E-VOLVE Cluster site. 

EM-TECH project meeting No. 3

It was already the third time, the EM-Tech consortium got together – this time in Torino, Italy. Co-hosted by Politecnico di TorinoCars@Polito and Ideas & Motion, the participants came together discussing the status of the project, the next steps and – as you can see from the pictures – the meeting included a tour to the testing facilities used within the project.

Thanks a lot to our hosts and organizers Nicola AmatiClaudio Romano, Barbara Almond, SauliusMarius Pakštys and all other colleagues involved. We are looking forward to meeting you all again online and in person. 

Sustainable Drives: Exploring Innovations in Green Vehicle Propulsion

We are looking back to a great event together with the projects MAXIMA, VOLTCAR and HEFT and can now share with you the presentation given by Eric Armengaud on behalf of the EM-Tech project. It was a great event and we received many interesting questions from the participants; thanks a lot to organizers, presenters and participants.

Please enjoy the video and don’t hesitate to come back to us in case of questions.
