Motor Controller development in D-Hub Consortium under PERTE-VEC

Over the past three years, we have proudly been part of the D-Hub Consortium (VEC-010000-2022-7-HUB-dCO2: Hub de descarbonización para la fabricación adaptativa, modular y multireferencia de VECs), contributing to the advancement of next-generation electric mobility technologies within the framework of the Strategic Projects for the Recovery and Economic Transformation in the Connected Electric Vehicle Sector (PERTE-VEC).

This transformative initiative has been made possible thanks to the support of the Ministry of Industry and Tourism and funding from the European Union’s Recovery and Resilience Mechanism, demonstrating a collective commitment to sustainable mobility solutions and industrial innovation. Moreover, the training project has been carried out under the following file number: (VEC-020400-2022-42-Formación de ensayo y validación de plataforma de control de motores eléctricos).

 

Our Contribution: Next-Generation Motor Controller Development

Within this cutting-edge R&D Consortium, our focus was on the development of an advanced Motor Controller (VEC-020100-2022-196-Diseño y desarrollo de plataforma de control de motores eléctricos para aplicaciones de movilidad en base a semiconductores de banda ancha).

Designed for seamless integration with both IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) and SiC (Silicon Carbide) semiconductors, this Motor Controller delivers exceptional power density and energy efficiency. These attributes are critical for driving the evolution of electric vehicles, improving their performance while optimizing energy usage.

Training on Testing and Validation of Electric Motor Control Platforms

In addition, an internal training course entitled “FORMACIÓN DE ENSAYO Y VALIDACIÓN DE PLATAFORMAS DE CONTROL DE MOTORES ELÉCTRICOS” (“Training on Testing and Validation of Electric Motor Control Platforms”) was carried out. This training project, which is also part of the main tractor project, aims to enhance the skills of workers. It is funded by Next Generation EU funds under the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan.
The project file number is VEC-020400-2022-42, with the primary project code PP_27. The training project budget amounts to €780.

 

Commitment to Innovation and Sustainable Electric Mobility in Europe

Through these initiatives, we reaffirm our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and the continuous development of our team’s capabilities. The collaboration within the D-Hub Consortium demonstrates the impact of shared knowledge and resources in advancing electric mobility. As we look to the future, we will continue to invest in cutting-edge technologies and training, driving progress toward a cleaner, smarter, and more sustainable transportation ecosystem.
