Power electronics optimisation for next generation electric vehicle components (PowerDrive)
Research Project, 2022 – 2025

Accelerating the development and deployment of zero-emission road mobility will pave the way for improved quality of life, economic growth, and new business opportunities for all EU Member States. This is the aim of the EU-funded PowerDrive project. It is developing an optimised electric vehicle (EV) powertrain to significantly reduce transport emissions and tackle the issues of air quality and noise pollution in urban areas. POWERDRIVE will draw on the experience and expertise of the project partners to develop technologies for the deployment of zero-emission road mobility. An optimised EV powertrain will significantly reduce transport emissions and tackle the issues of air quality and noise pollution in urban areas.
