Requirements for generalization of the approach to EU industryOlgaRodrguezLargo
Identifying some criteria to generalize the results of a research project on the Circular Economy on a European scale requires a broader competence on products end of life products combined with an ability to predict which will be the most relevant trend lines that will influence the technologies and economic dynamics of products end of life in the coming years.
This deliverable highlights that there various types of criteria: some are of a general nature, cross-cutting and allow the project to be strengthened in terms of its European value, while others are more specific and expendable on the three specific value chains that, by integrating them, have surely more chances to be recognized and appreciated in European terms.
The work is not limited to a mere statement of general criteria, but also provides some examples and operating suggestions for the transformation of these European criteria for valid operational suggestions for future activities of CarE-Service project.
£10m funding support for Zero Emission Vehicle innovation.
The webinar will allow attendees to hear about the new funding opportunity. The top-level details are as follows:
- Application period opens 17 June and closes 29 July
- Single or up to two partner collaborations
- Focus around feasibility studies and R&D projects
- Projects delivery in six months
- Focused on ZEV innovation including battery and charging technologies
It is vital that businesses of all sizes, academics, RTOs and local authority representatives join to hear about the scope and details of this funding.
This will be your chance to hear about the funding scope, eligibility criteria and application process and also the chance to take part in a live Q&A with Innovate UK.

Rare earth free motor designs - ReFreeDrive projectLeonardo ENERGY
Webinar recording at https://youtu.be/PziGDLfE5_w
ReFreeDrive objective is to develop motor designs avoiding the use of rare earth magnets. Instead, abundant materials such as steel, ferrite and copper are used.
Outcomes of the study from the Hydrogen MOBILITÉ France.
73% of hydrogen used is to be generated by the cleanest possible method: electrolysis by 2030. Electrolysis uses only water and renewable power and the hydrogen can be generated where it is required, therefore eliminating fossil fuels 100% in its production and delivery.

Hydrogène : promesses et défis dans l'industrie automobile | LIEGE CREATIVE, ...LIEGE CREATIVE
Comme de nombreux secteurs, l’industrie automobile est confrontée à une transformation radicale sous l’action de la pression des défis que la société doit relever pour la prochaine décennie.
C’est dans ce contexte de changements, que l’Université de Liège a réalisé le livre blanc « FUTURE MOVE » au sein du projet Pôle Automobile Européen (PAE).
Outre la crise sanitaire, l’électrification, l’essor de la mobilité douce, l’automatisation de la conduite et la digitalisation, la décarbonisation du secteur automobile s’impose comme une des lignes de force à l’horizon 2030-2035. Ces transformations posent de nombreux défis techniques, juridiques ou sociologiques pour lesquels des solutions restent à trouver.
En particulier, le livre blanc a identifié le développement des véhicules à hydrogène comme un des axes importants de la relance et de la décarbonisation des transports dans la Grande Région. Les constructeurs voient dans l’hydrogène un axe prometteur pour les véhicules lourds et les véhicules utilitaires. L’émergence de cette nouvelle motorisation va de paire avec la mise sur pied de la filière de production d’hydrogène vert et avec l’installation d’un réseau de distribution.
Comment cette technologie sera-t-elle intégrée par l’industrie automobile européenne ? Quelles sont les opportunités pour les PME et la recherche universitaire ? Quels seront les nouveaux acteurs de demain dans cette nouvelle filière ? Comment relever le challenge de la formation du personnel ?

WP7: Independent testing and overall assessment
WP3: Engine aftertreatment system
WP2: Advanced LNG vehicle fuel system
WP2: Tank and fuel systems have been developed and have
been delivered to the vehicle OEMs. Integration of a new
partner as supplier for high pressure gas system and reduction
of gas pressure from 500 to 300 bar will secure a proper
operation in the vehicle
WP3: Methane conversion efficiency and catalyst ageing are
being considered as main challenge. New catalyst compositions
will make a major contribution being emission compliant
without major fuel efficiency penalties by applying targeted
thermal management
WP4: The stoichiometric SI engine is considered as straight
forward technology with no concerns in terms of emission
compliance. With several new technologies being implemented,
major steps reducing fuel consumption will be realized. The
goal of 10% reduction on best point has been reached, while
reduction of 10% GHG emission remains challenging.
The lean burn version should easily reach the targets connected
to improved efficiency while compliance with emission level of
methane is the main challenge
WP5: Dual fuel engines offer great flexibility to its operators
while the LNG network still needs improvements in terms of
coverage. Reaching the 10% of CO2 reduction has been
achieved already. Being emission compliant in all conditions still
remains as the main challenge. To achieve this aim the
optimization of transient conditions and the maintenance of
the MOC catalyst over a range of temperature is crucial.
WP6: HPGI offers high CO2 reduction potential (>20%) as well
as no major concerns in terms of emission compliance. System
complexity and cost are areas to be in focus

Expected or potential impact
Technological impact
▪ The main challenges of gas powered HD vehicles are: Vehicle costs, vehicle performance,
vehicle/engine availability and infrastructure. Except the last item (infrastructure) all items
will be covered and hurdles being lowered in this project.
Environmental impact:
▪ Reducing GHG by min. 10% from 2013 state of the art HD engines will contribute to limit
global warming
▪ Gas enignes with help to improve air quality due to the fact that they emit significantly less
pollutants
▪ Using biogas instead of Natural gas would further reduce the CO2 by over 90%
Economical and social impact:
▪ Providing know how in terms of gas engines and LNG vehicles to the EU industry, enables
the development and sales of related products - strengthen the industry – securing jobs
within the EU
