Transport electrification
We develop state-of-the-art technologies for transport electrification, combining applied research with unique capacities in terms of design, integration and experimental testing. From hybrid and electric traction systems to smart storage and energy distribution networks, we provide solutions that maximise energy efficiency and contribute towards net zero decarbonisation and emission objectives.
Solutions
Electric motors
We design and develop electric motors and high torque density electric generators, including technologies such as synchronous and induction motors and those with permanent magnets (ndfeb and smco). Our approach includes radial, axial and linear configurations which meet transport and industrial system requirements, with air and liquid cooling systems according to torque density specifications.
Power electronics
We create compact and high-density power converters, integrating wide-bandgap semiconductors (such as sic and gan) and innovative air or liquid cooling systems. These solutions enable operation to be carried out at high commutation frequencies, thus significantly improving efficiency and reducing the size of the systems.
