ABSTRACT
Electro-mobility is considered as a key technology to achieve green mobility and fulfil tomorrow’s emission standards. However, different challenges still need to be faced to achieve comparable performances to conventional vehicles and finally obtain market acceptance. Transversal innovation targets the optimisation of the system architecture and its consistent definition in the technologies and in the system hierarchies. The focus was set on providing a consolidated basis to simplify later industrialization of the proposed technologies. Technology innovation aims at improving the components of the E/E control system, including topics such as smart sensors, innovative computing platforms or control strategies. Transversal innovation targets the evidences related to the trust in the technical solutions with respect to correct operation, functional safety, security and reliability. This group of technical innovations is an indicator for the maturity of the proposed technology and further provides information on the efforts required for proper integration and validation of the system.
