We have just released our ad-hoc input for the preliminary consultation phase for the next European Framework Programme for Research and Innovation (FP10). 📃 The next FP10 offers Europe a great opportunity to move forward towards common goals, pooling resources, efforts, and talents. With respect to road transport, EARPA provides seven high-level key recommendations to serve as input for the consultations for the FP10 in our paper below.    We call on the EU Institutions to significantly increase the current RD&I budget in view of the FP10 for the automotive research sector.    Discover our recommendations below 👇🏼 CCAM Association 2Zero BEPA - Batteries European Partnership Association

Very interesting day yesterday, attending CWIEME Events (Coil Winding, Insulation, & Electrical Manufacturing Exhibition) in Berlin, meeting with several of our suppliers and assisting to few of the lectures and panel discussions. Decarbonisation is an important topic for us, so the panel discussion on how to drive the sustainability in decarbonising the transformers supply chain was availing. My takeaways from the discussion are: 1. We need clear and regulated definitions on how to assess the sustainability of different materials. 2. We need a collaboration through the full supply chain, from suppliers to customers to share the costs of decarbonisation. 3. As we dig more on the decarbonisation we discover how much we still need to learn on this topic. Today was a productive day for me in our Switchgear Factory in Berlin, meeting with two suppliers to discuss our future collaboration on cast resin parts and find further developments on new materials.

Very excited that our Senior Manager Mobility & Life Cycle Assessment, Benedetta Nucci, will be speaking at the International Automotive Recycling Congress in Antwerp on 20 June! 🗣   We want to take this opportunity to emphasise the need for the revision of the #ELV (End-of-life of Vehicles) Directive to prioritise material availability and reuse, advocating for measures such as improved vehicle design, enhanced dismantling practices, and the inclusion of minimum requirements for #aluminium scrap classification.   Measures such as expanding the scope of circularity passports should be introduced and the implementation of fact-based measures for post-consumer recycled content to drive sustainable practices in the #automotive industry. 🚗   Read more about our priorities for the ELV Directive revision ➡ https://lnkd.in/dqwkaqXf   Register to the Congress and find out more ➡https://lnkd.in/dcavd4ts   #IARC #mobility #recycling

The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence – it is to act with yesterday’s logic. (Peter Drucker). That is why we at BME are constantly looking, testing and implementing new technologies and methods to act with new logic Today I am at the Nevi CPO summit in which i surely will get, given the program, some new input to be tested and implemented in BME Nevi, BME - Building Materials Europe l, Frank Rozemeijer Finn Wynstra

With the UK looking to refresh its approach to nurturing trade relationships, that mission is already underway with SMMT and our German counterpart German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA) hosting automotive representatives from Britain and Germany’s business departments in Berlin this week. From trade and industrial policy to the skills transition and automated vehicles, our two markets are closely intertwined and many of our challenges are shared. By working together and sharing best practice, we can seek successful, sustainable solutions that deliver a new generation of mobility and prosperity in the UK and across the EU.

Modern monitoring systems are increasingly being used in the maritime industry to help improve vessel efficiency. Information exchanges between vessels and onshore offices are now becoming part of the cyber war playing field. Cyber incidents could cause a serious impact on the safety and security of a vessel and environmental damage. Join us to get more insight into maritime cybersecurity

Going upstream: TÜV NORD Germany and ------ partner up for battery condition assessments In recent years, electromobility has developed from a niche market to a serious alternative in the transport field. More and more drivers around the world are opting for battery-electric vehicles, whether out of environmental awareness, to save money or out of technological curiosity. But this boom in electric cars is also being accompanied by an increased demand for safety, reliability and efficiency. Battery condition assessments play a crucial role here, and this is where the strategic cooperation between TÜV NORD and the Austrian technology company ----- comes in.
