On 12 and 13 October, the first site visit of all consortium members took place at Reederei Frisia in Norddeich, Northern Germany. Here, the first Hyper POwered vessel BATTery charger (HYPOBATT) is to be built in 2024, all participants met and surveyed the local conditions for the full-scale demonstration phase of the project.

HYPOBATT

The transport sector is responsible for about 23% of CO2 emissions and is thus a significant source of climate-damaging greenhouse gases. After road and air transport, a significant amount of global CO2 emissions falls on shipping. On the way to a climate-friendly future, it is therefore crucial to find ways to reduce these emissions. The European project HYPOBATT (Hyper powered vessel battery charging system) has brought together 18 key players from the European maritime sector.

ESCALATE

Heavy-duty vehicles account for about 25% of EU road transport CO2 emissions and about 6% of total EU emissions. In line with the Paris Agreement and Green Deal targets, Regulation (EU) 2019/1242 setting CO2 emission standards for HDVs (from August 14, 2019) forces the transition to a seamless integration of zero-emission vehicles into fleets. In line with the European 2050 goals ESCALATE aims to demonstrate high-efficiency zHDV powertrains (up to 10% increase) for long-haul applications that will provide a range of 800 km without refueling/recharging and cover at least 500 km average daily operation (6+ months) in real conditions.

Welcome to an exciting new chapter! After a successful launch just a few weeks ago in the vibrant city of Aachen, this innovative Horizon Europe project is now well underway and ready to make a lasting impact. But what exactly is this project all about? At its core, the primary goal is to drive forward groundbreaking solutions, foster collaboration across disciplines, and address some of the most pressing challenges of our time.

Aachen, Germany
The HAVEN consortium, a collaborative effort of leading academic and industrial partners, will work for 48 months on the design of a sustainable, and safe Hybrid-Efficiency Energy Storage System (HESS) to revolutionise the power grid and electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. The innovative HESS will address the challenges of integrating renewable energy sources (RES) and enabling seamless EV charging.

TWINVEST

The TWINVEST project aims to develop a universal, open-source, and cybersecure Digital Twin to provide investors in onshore wind farms with valuable insights into both current performance and future investment potential. It will revolutionise the energy sector by modelling the complete wind farm system, encompassing its components and environmental dynamics. Incorporating advanced analytics, AI, and machine learning, it will enable operators to forecast, oversee, and enhance wind farm performance, facilitating the growth of new wind farms.

On 4-5 September, the TWINVEST consortium gathered for our inaugural meeting at the AVESTA facilities to kick off the project! Over two days, we engaged in productive discussions around our key objectives, strategies, and next steps to ensure the success of our collaborative efforts. Exciting times lie ahead as we unite to drive innovation and deliver truly impactful results. Stay tuned for more updates!
Project Kick-off-Meeting
Ninove, Belgium
Current methods for evaluating Li-ion batteries’ safety, performance, reliability, and lifetime entail significant resource consumption throughout the battery R&D process. Major considerations include the time or number of tests required, costly equipment, and a generalised trial-and-error approach. Additionally, there is a lack of understanding regarding the complex multi-scale and multi-physics phenomena within the battery system. Furthermore, testing facilities operate locally, meaning that data management is conducted directly at the facility and that experimentation is limited to a single test bench.

FASTEST

The FASTEST project aims to address these challenges by developing and validating a fast-track testing platform that integrates a strategy based on Design of Experiments (DoE) and robust testing results, combining multi-scale and multi-physics virtual and physical testing.

This platform will accelerate battery system R&D and enable the design of more reliable, safer, and longer-lasting battery systems. Designed with a user-centric approach, the platform will manage requirements for specific applications and battery systems or subsystems, ranging from the entire pack to individual modules, cells, or materials.
