As part of the Opt4E research project (https://www.opt4e.de/), the ePOP tool for multi-criteria powertrain optimisation was presented to the consortium partners.
The consortium consists of the Technical University of Munich (FZG), the Technical University of Darmstadt (IMS), the Leibniz University of Hanover (IMKT, IAL), AVL, the BMW Group, LSP Innovative Automotive Systems GmbH, MAGNA Powertrain GmbH & Co KG, Schaeffler, Strama-MPS and Vitesco Technologies.
The Opt4E research project focuses on the comprehensive synthesis and optimisation of powertrains for electric vehicles. The aim is to use innovative, data-based algorithms to support the development of sustainable and economically efficient drive concepts in order to guarantee the highest quality standards.
The ePOP tool can support collaboration between universities and industrial partners at the highest level. For example, universities with different specialisations such as transmission development or electric machines can work together on the optimal system solution. Innovations can thus be driven forward not only at subsystem level, but also with a view to the overall optimum.
The international focus of the project is particularly noteworthy. The consortium has established contact with the ZeBeyond team from the United Kingdom beyond national borders in order to strengthen European cooperation and further drive innovation in the automotive sector.
This commitment to a sustainable and efficient future contributes to the further development of electric mobility.
We look forward to a more efficient, more sustainable future - together!
