On the 26th of October 2021, CEA Tech Grand West organized a scientific webinar that allowed all the attendees to discover technological innovations and industrial collaborations in progress taken by CEA.

The webinar counted with the participation of numerous speakers, including presentations of CEA Tech and its missions and means technology and the R&D platform at the service of companies. In one of the sessions, Nicolas Hascoët presented the i-HeCoBatt project and its thermal characterization battery pack for automotive application.

On the following 4^th of November 2021 at 10:00 CET, i-HeCoBatt project, along with other partners and related EU funded projects, will organise a webinar on “Safety and Standards of the Batteries in the Electric Vehicles” with the purpose to disseminate the achieved results and share experiences of the involved participants.

Electric vehicule are bring into focus to be a green and clean car. New concept of car with more safety, comfort and reliability. The mains challenges on the subject are the price and autonomous. Ihecobatt project keeps focus on these two aspects. These can be upgrade by eco-conception and energy management. The battery pack needs to have a thermal management. The goal of a thermal management system is to deliver a battery pack at an optimum average temperature. CEA works consist in characterizing, understanding and optimizing the new heat exchanger management with CIDETEC. The efficient and eco conception of the hardware part are realized by MIBA with AUDI and CEA support.…

According to the European Environmental Agency, transport is responsible for approximately 30% of the EU’s total CO₂ emissions, of which 72% comes from road transportation. Indeed, CO₂ emissions from passenger transport represent the highest contribution, accounting for around 61% of the total related to road transport in Europe (European Parliament, 2019a). In this regard, the EU has set a sever goal to reduce 60% of this sort of emissions (from transport) by 2050, compared to 1990 levels (European Parliament, 2019b).…

From May 7th to 9th 2019, one of i-HeCoBatt’s partners, Miba, presented, together with other innovations of the company, the i-HeCoBatt project at The Battery Show Europe, Europe’s largest show for highly advanced batteries – and HEV-Technologies.
