Periodic Reporting for period 2 - EcoMobility (Intelligent, Safe and secure connected Electrical Mobility solutions: Towards European Green Deal and Seamless Mobility)

Reporting period: 2024-05-01 to 2025-04-30

Summary of the context and overall objectives of the project

The EcoMobility solutions aim to support stakeholders in the transportation industry and cities as they transition from isolated and static transportation methods to a service-centric, connected mobility ecosystem. This transformation involves overcoming various challenges. EcoMobility has identified four key digital enablers—AI, safety and trustworthiness within the automotive ecosystem, a robust and modular architecture, and agility for digital transformation. These enablers will significantly impact technology adoption and the quality of intelligent mobility solutions in addressing the challenges of digitalization and ecological societal development. The resulting infrastructure will tackle multiple challenges faced by Europe today and contribute to a significant breakthrough in various application areas, representing a crucial step toward a digital society 5.0. To achieve this mission, EcoMobility focuses on six objectives.

Work performed from the beginning of the project to the end of the period covered by the report and main results achieved so far

During months M12–M24, the consortium concentrated on advancing the technical development of SC-specific demonstrators and their associated use cases. Building on earlier work, each SC refined hardware and software requirements and specifications, which enabled the first iterations of system-level design and modeling within WP2. Initial tests and feasibility studies validated key technologies such as Adaptive, Data‑Driven Development & Lifecycle Management, Advanced Perception, Localization & Mapping, and Cooperative, Connected Vehicle Ecosystem. These findings informed ongoing development activities, ensuring demonstrators remain aligned with the project’s overarching objectives.
In parallel, WP7 strengthened dissemination and communication efforts. The project’s visual identity was finalized, and its website and social media channels were actively leveraged to engage stakeholders and the public. WP8 focused on reinforcing the Steering Committee Team (SCT) to ensure effective coordination across the consortium. Regular SCT meetings supported timely execution of tasks, continuous risk assessment and mitigation, and seamless information flow between teams.
Overall, this period established a solid foundation for the next phases, where design and development will be further refined. The consortium remains on track to achieve planned milestones, with ongoing collaboration and communication ensuring all SC-specific developments align with project goals.

Progress beyond the state of the art and expected potential impact (including the socio-economic impact and the wider societal implications of the project so far)

To achieve a more sustainable and efficient transportation ecosystem, our focus remains on several critical objectives. Firstly, continuous optimization of design methods and value chains for digital mobility streamlines processes, reduces congestion, and enhances accessibility. Secondly, the development of on-board intelligent components ensures safer, more reliable vehicles equipped with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and improved autonomy. Third, intelligent connectivity mechanisms facilitate greener, safer road mobility through real-time traffic management and seamless integration with infrastructure. Fourth, smart battery management systems, powered by cloud-based AI services, extend battery life and optimize energy utilization. Fifth, a multimodal transport system integrates public transport and efficient freight logistics, ultimately reducing environmental impact. Finally, providing market intelligence strengthens the European electrified vehicle industry, informs decision-making, and promotes user acceptance.
WP2: Year 2 was dedicated to defining the architectures and interfaces of the corresponding demonstrators. As part of the preparation for requirements and specifications, state-of-the-art studies were conducted on relevant demonstrators and use cases. The primary architecture design has already been delivered, and work is now progressing on detailed and optimized versions. The related achievements in system designs and architectures will be reported/disseminated in detail in RP2.
WP3: The second year focused on delineating sensors, components, and architectures for the different use cases. An early hardware prototype is now available, and the consortium is currently preparing the M27 deliverable, which will provide the final report on hardware component development.
WP4: Implementation activities are ongoing. The first WP4 deliverable (M24) has been successfully delivered, and work continues toward finalizing the implementation.
WP5: Since WP5 (which started in M13) ran in parallel with WP3 and WP4 during this reporting period, most SCs were still focusing on separate HW and SW developments. Nevertheless, all SCs have completed preparatory work to enable a smooth and step-wise integration of the subsystems.
WP6: WP6 is scheduled to start at M24; therefore, no formal activities are planned or reportable for this initial reporting period. Nevertheless, the WP leader, together with task leaders, has already started monitoring activities related to specific SCs to detect possible criticalities early.
