Funded Projects

This project is developing a novel drive system technology that will integrate permanent magnet electric motors directly into drive units for off-highway applications.

This project is focused on the development of unique, technically advanced high performance e-motors and inverters that exceed currently available, best in class standards.

HIPERCAR 2 brought together a range of cutting-edge low carbon technologies to create an ultra-high performance Ariel vehicle.

During this project, Jaguar Land Rover have created a consortium of world class academic and industrial partners to create a state of the art electric drive unit (EDU), and the supply chain to deliver it.

Through this project, Coventry University will research the possibility of increasing safety using the torque vectoring capability to reduce the hazard of certain failure modes, such as tyre blow-outs on motorways.

The APC’s funding of this project ensures that a key component of moving to zero carbon electric vehicles - Silicon Carbide - has a supply chain in the UK and the technology and manufacture to ensure that change is made.

This project demonstrates the development of production technologies for traction motor production to enable production scale-up of motors produced by Magnetic Systems Technology (Magtec) - a leading UK supplier servicing the commercial vehicles market.

This project will design and bench-test an innovative transaxle and vehicle control system for 7.5-19t commercial vehicles. Further developing and commercialising Tevva’s existing battery module and pack design with active thermal management.

The project, involving three UK-based SME’s, has been able to develop a state of the art electric bus – the Jewel-E with up to 250mile range. Utilising novel HVAC design significant efficiency gains have been found.

This project will deliver a novel cryogenic engine, fuelled by liquid nitrogen, making it ideal for refrigerated trucks.
