Ongoing Projects
SCALE
Smart Charging Alignment for Europe
SCALE is a three-year Horizon Europe project advancing smart charging infrastructure and facilitating the mass deployment of electric vehicles, reducing uncertainties around the roll-out of smart charging, interoperable and V2X solutions to help shape a new energy eco-system wherein the flexibility of EV batteries’ is harnessed.
EAFO
European Alternative Fuel Observatory
The European Alternative Fuel Observatory (EAFO) is an online portal, funded by the European Commission, that provides open and free information on the deployment of infrastructure for alternative fuels.
FLOW
Flexible energy systems Leveraging the Optimal integration of EVs deployment Wave
FLOW is a four-year Horizon Europe project testing, validating and enhancing user-centric V2X smart charging solutions and their orchestrated integration into energy grids that deliver flexibility assets to favour additional penetration of renewables and alleviate energy grid challenges.
Li4LIFE
Novel Domestic Battery Grade Lithium Carbonate Value Chain for Green Life
Li4LIFE is a three-year Horizon Europe project developing technology for the extraction of lithium from poor or complex ores of underutilised deposits and post-mining tailings as the basis for the development of future clean energy. The project aims to increase EU domestic supply of local raw materials by at least 5% by 2030.
AHEAD
AI-informed Holistic Electric Vehicles Integration Approaches for Distribution Grids
AHEAD is a four-year Horizon Europe project creating a simulation environment capable of predicting the most convenient locations to place EV charging stations while optimising both the usage of the power grid resources and that of the charging stations in urban and rural areas.
ZEV-UP
Frugal Zero-Emission Vehicles for the Urban Passenger Challenge
ZEV-UP is a three-and-a-half-year Horizon Europe project developing a user-centric, frugal zero-emission vehicle concept with three vehicle variants tailored for the transport of passengers and goods.
Completed Projects
CRM4EV
Critical Raw Materials for Electric Vehicles
Taskforce 40 Critical Raw Materials for Electric Vehicles- of the International Energy Agency (IEA) Technology Collaboration Programme “Hybrid and Electric Vehicle” (HEV) , that was active between between 2019 and 2022, aimed at providing accurate, credible and up to date information on materials and topics which are considered as (potentially) critical for a quick ramp up of electric vehicles sales.
SEEV-4CITY
Smart, Clean Energy and Electric Vehicle for the City
Smart, Clean Energy and Electric Vehicle for the City (SEEV4-CITY) took place between 2018 and 2021. Its main objective wass to demonstrate smart electric mobility solutions, that integrate renewable-energy sources and encourage take-up in cities.
REE4EU
Rare Earth Recycling for Europe
The Rare Earth Recycling for Europe (REE4EU) project, that took place between 2015 and 2018, aimed to open-up a fully new route bringing recovery of in-process wastes from Permanent Magnet manufacturing within reach.
