VUB – EPOWERS Research Group
Vrije Universiteit Brussel - EPOWERS Research Group
Organisation Introduction
The EPOWERS Research Group of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) is a renowned research group in the field of power electronics, powertrains, and smart green energy solutions with intelligent control systems. EPOWERS’ vision is to create sustainable, emission-free, affordable, efficient, and innovative technologies to enable smart mobility, transport, and energy solutions for all.
Why BELOGIC?
BELOGIC is in line with EPOWERS’ scientific roadmap and is an evolution of the work EPOWERS researchers performed in previous and ongoing projects like NextETRUCK, ZEFES, and FLEXMCS.
Involvement in BELOGIC?
VUB is the Coordinator of BELOGIC and plays an active role in communication, dissemination, exploitation, and business modeling via stakeholder engagement, the AEVETO cluster, and technical publications.
VUB will also lead the work on the optimization and development of tools into logistic operational management systems.
“VUB, coordinator of BELOGIC, is pleased to guide this capable consortium to address the practical bottlenecks and day to day issues that logistic service providers experience when they try BEVs for long-haul missions. BELOGIC will tackle charging challenges, high public charging costs, and parking concerns with realistic models and smart tools to make implementation costs of BEVs lower than diesel.”
