Important results from the project
** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The project´s objective was to identify and process obstacles and opportunities for the establishment of a modular battery exchange system for working machines. The purpose was to increase knowledge and understanding of a new upcoming market and what will be required to reach a system entry. The five system dimensions have been investigated. Through the project, the degree of maturity within the system has increased. There is now a clearer common picture and understanding of the system´s problems and challenges.
Expected long term effects
** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The project has succeeded in creating a working battery replacement concept that has been shown at several different demo events. The project has received very positive publicity in the media and has been able to identify several important areas where users, companies and other stakeholders in the industry believe that there still are uncertainties that need to be studied more closely. The work has resulted in an improved picture of areas where in-depth work is needed to clarify how new technologies can meet the regulatory eligibility requirements.
Approach and implementation
** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The project has investigated several different scenarios with many perspectives and had conversations, interviews and seminars with several different types of actors in future system as well as other industries. The technology has been demonstrated at Elmia Woods, demo days in Vadstena and Svenljunga and received a lot of media attention. On these occasions users´ attitudes and opinions have been collected. The exchange of knowledge within and outside the project has been important for the expansion of networks, understanding and lessons learned.
