• Fundamental research in the physical sciences and life sciences

CEA Tech is the technology research unit of CEA. It develops through its three institutes – Leti, Liten, List – a broad portfolio of technologies for ICTs, energy and healthcare.
The institutes of CEA Tech are conducting R&D to overcome the Transportation and mobility challenges with four major focuses: vehicle design, infrastructure, services and energy supplies.
CEA tech R&D activities, in the field of land transportation, include batteries and battery management systems for electric vehicles as well as software, sensors and other communicating objects that will equip future vehicles, and in particular driverless cars and transportation infrastructure.
