Zusammenfassung vom Kontext und den Gesamtzielen des Projekts

As demand grows for safer, more efficient electric vehicles, advanced thermal insulation is becoming critical — especially to protect and manage the heat of battery packs. Silica aerogels are among the most effective insulation materials ever developed, but their high cost and complex production have kept them out of large-scale applications.
The EN.MOTION project by Enersens changes the game. It introduces a continuous manufacturing process for ultra-thin, ready-to-use aerogel blankets (Skogar®) that deliver exceptional thermal performance at a fraction of today’s cost. This breakthrough paves the way for widespread use of high-performance insulation in batteries and other cutting-edge technologies.

Arbeit, die ab Beginn des Projekts bis zum Ende des durch den Bericht erfassten Berichtszeitraums geleistet wurde, und die wichtigsten bis dahin erzielten Ergebnisse

During the project, all manufacturing steps were optimized to maximize efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and improve product quality. Breakthrough, patented technologies — including the use of microwaves for rapid and uniform drying — were integrated into the process. Tailor-made equipment was developed specifically for the precise and efficient production of thin sheets of aerogel composite material. The result is an innovative, highly efficient, and cleaner manufacturing process that sets a new benchmark for advanced thermal insulation production.

Fortschritte, die über den aktuellen Stand der Technik hinausgehen und voraussichtliche potenzielle Auswirkungen (einschließlich der bis dato erzielten sozioökonomischen Auswirkungen und weiter gefassten gesellschaftlichen Auswirkungen des Projekts)

The Skogar® product is now readily available to innovators developing the next generation of high-performance battery packs, offering exceptional thermal insulation to enhance safety and efficiency. Produced entirely in Europe, with 100% of its feedstock sourced from within Europe, Skogar® provides a clear sovereignty, supply chain, and environmental advantage to European clients. To meet growing demand from battery manufacturers, as well as aerospace, defence, and micro-electronics sectors, additional funding is required to scale up production capacity and fully unlock the market potential of this breakthrough technology..
