INCOBAT

Electro-mobility is considered as a key technology to achieve green mobility and fulfil tomorrow&rsquo,s emission standards. However, different challenges still need to be faced to achieve comparable performances to conventional vehicles and finally obtain market acceptance. Two of these challenges are vehicle range and production costs. In that context, the aim of the INCOBAT project (October 2013 &ndash, December 2016) was to provide innovative and cost efficient battery management systems for next generation HV-batteries. INCOBAT presents a platform concept that achieves cost reduction, reduced complexity, increased reliability and flexibility while at the same time reaching higher energy efficiency. Advantages of this approach include
