Obiettivo The REBOOT project aims to significantly improve the competitiveness of European urban bus operators through the development of a retrofit all-electric drive system that replaces diesel engines. The objectives of our project include:• To develop a retrofit all-electric drive system, battery and recharger pack for an 18 tonne bus that weighs less than 2.2 tonnes (the weight of a diesel drive) with the capacity to travel 160km • A final system price of €120,000 that delivers a payback to the operator within 3 years• To deliver an 80% reduction in fuel operating cost for bus operators In Phase 1, our objectives include: • Conduct market sounding activities with at least 10 organisations comprising of customers, regulators and industry experts • Identify and establish strategic partnerships with at least 3 European industry partners in our value chain and 2 research institutions capable of enhancing the development and commercialisation of REBOOT• Identify and secure at least 1 location and operator for the pilot trial / demonstration of REBOOT • Evaluate an initial technology concept design using a design simulation package• Conduct a comprehensive review of the IP landscape and identify management strategies Campo scientifico social sciencessocial geographytransportelectric vehiclessocial scienceseconomics and businessbusiness and managementbusiness modelsengineering and technologyenvironmental engineeringenergy and fuels Programma(i) H2020-EU.3.4. - SOCIETAL CHALLENGES - Smart, Green And Integrated Transport Main Programme H2020-EU.2.3.1. - Mainstreaming SME support, especially through a dedicated instrument Argomento(i) IT-1-2014-1 - Small business innovation research for Transport Invito a presentare proposte H2020-SMEInst-2014-2015 Vedi altri progetti per questo bando Bando secondario H2020-SMEINST-1-2014 Meccanismo di finanziamento SME-1 - SME instrument phase 1 Coordinatore MAGNETIC SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY LIMITED Contribution nette de l'UE € 50 000,00 Indirizzo 11 OMEGA COURT 350 CEMETERY ROAD S11 8FT SHEFFIELD Regno Unito Mostra sulla mappa PMI L’organizzazione si è definita una PMI (piccola e media impresa) al momento della firma dell’accordo di sovvenzione.
