Projects
EARPA directly supports or initiates new networks, projects and consortia by bringing interested parties together and facilitating meetings. However, EARPA is not directly carrying out or managing projects, its members do.
This section gives an overview of some EU-funded projects in which EARPA members are involved. This list is far from being exhaustive as EARPA members are involved in a very large number of RTD projects.

HELENA proposes a disruptive technology to design batteries with an optimized performance at high currents and stable cycling that will allow the adoption of these batteries in electric vehicles and, especially, in airplanes.Halide solid state batteries for ELectric vEhicles aNd Aircrafts (HELENA)&n...
HIPE
(High Performance Power Electronics Integrations)
The HiPE project is part of the EU Call “HORIZON-CL5-2021-D5-01-02. Nextgen vehicles: Nextgen EV components: Integration of advanced power electronics and associated controls (2ZERO)” and aims to develop a new family of highly energy efficient, cost-effective, modular, compact ...
LENS
(L-vehicles Emissions and Noise)
LENS is a three-year Horizon Europe project assisting enforcement authorities, cities, and regulators to decrease the contribution of L-category vehicles (LVs: mopeds, motorcycles, tricycles and quadri-mobiles) to noise and air pollution. It develops and promotes interventions and best practices to ...
MARBEL
(Manufacturing and assembly of modular and reusable Electric Vehicle battery for environment-friendly and lightweight mobility)
The MARBEL project develops an innovative and competitive lightweight battery with the objective to accelerate the mass market take-up of electric and hybrid vehicles. MARBEL, coordinated by Eurecat, will design, develop and demonstrate a new compact, modular, weight-optimise...
NEMO
(Next generation models for advanced battery electronics)
Battery management plays a crucial role in providing efficient and safe battery operation yet, existing BMS often rely on a small amount of observed data as well as semi-empirical battery models. This scarcity of knowledge regarding the battery’s overall state when it is in use leads to subopt...
nextETRUCK
(Efficient and affordable Zero Emission logistics through the Next generation of Electric TRUCKs)
The EU intends to achieve a climate-neutral economy by 2050. In this context, the European Commission supports projects that introduce electric vehicles into the transportation sector. NextETRUCK provides a sustainable solution to bring zero-emission electric medium freight haulage, playing a p...
SELFY
(Self assessment, protection & healing tools for a trustworthy and resilient CCAM)
The SELFY project develops a toolbox made up of collaborative solutions with the objective to improve the resilience of the Cooperative Connected Automated Mobility sector.The project will conduct research and development on algorithms and technologies to build a set of...
SUNRISE
(Safety assurance framework for connected, automated mobility systems)
IntroductionThe SUNRISE project is about safety assurance of Cooperative, Connected and Automated Mobility (CCAM) systems. This safety assurance is crucial for their successful adoption and deployment in society. CCAM systems must be reliable in every possible driving scenario. This requires a stron...
VERA
(Vehicle Emission Retrofit Activities)
More than 275 million vehicles are on the EU’s roads today, with older taxis, delivery vans and buses impairing urban air quality. The EU-funded VERA project will develop, optimise and demonstrate innovative tailpipe retrofit solutions to address particle and NOx emissions, particularly consid...
XL-CONNECT
(Large scale system approach for advanced charging solutions)
By 2030, it is expected that there will be around 30-40 million battery-powered electric vehicles in the European Union. This increase in electric vehicles poses a challenge for the energy system in Europe, but it also presents an opportunity to utilize V1G/V2G/V2X technologies. Since vehicles spend...
