On-going projects

HiPower5.0 HiPower 5.0 project aims to develop highly integrated and energy-efficient power electronics components for sustainable mobility applications in the automotive and maritime sectors.     “Making transport sustainable for all” is a key topic in “The European Green Deal,” aiming for a climate-neutral Europe by 2050[1]. The Green Deal seeks to transform the EU into a modern, resource-efficient, and…
The CODE4EV project aims to accelerate the development of electric software-defined vehicles (SDVs) by establishing a collaborative development framework. This framework will support the design, production and operational phases of electric vehicles (EVs) by demonstrating its application through selected Use Cases relevant to emerging and future SDV architectures. The project key objectives include the elaboration of digital design tools and…
Elaphe is driving breakthrough innovation in microelectronics for electric vehicles with European co-financing. Elaphe, a leading Slovenian company in electric vehicle innovation, is part of the ambitious European IPCEI ME/CT project (Important Project of Common European Interest in Microelectronics and Communication Technologies), co-financed by the European Union together with Member States. The project focuses on accelerating the development of advanced…
The ZEV-UP project aims to develop modular, cost-effective, and user-centric EVs for both passenger and goods transportation. Leveraging innovative design and engineering techniques, ZEV-UP vehicles will be tailored to meet the specific needs of users in both developed and emerging markets, ensuring high levels of user acceptance and market uptake. The project will achieve lighter vehicles with increased autonomy and…
In-wheel motors (IWMs) have become a mature technology that is well-suited for new user-centric electric vehicles (EVs). IWMs can be integrated in multi-functional and controllable modules consisting of the electric powertrain, friction brake and suspension/steering actuation. By combining several vehicle functionalities in a compact solution, the modules offer substantial opportunities to enhance the design and operation of EVs. This is…
