The collaboration between Perkins Engines Company Limited, Equipmake, and Loughborough University is to design, develop and demonstrate an innovative 'drop-in' pre-integrated, highly configurable electric hybrid power system capable of operating using hydrogen or lower carbon intensity fuels that a wide-range of customers can readily incorporate into their off-highway vehicles and machines.Many off-highway vehicle and machine manufacturers lack the scale and resources to integrate advanced power systems into their products. This is limiting the penetration of reduced carbon power systems in the UK Non-Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM) markets. This will impact the ability of industry to support the UK government's targets for net zero in industrial sectors such as construction and infrastructure.As outlined in the Advanced Propulsion Centre's roadmap 2040 report, the energy transition for off road vehicles will require a diverse range of alternative fuels \[including hydrogen and lower-carbon intensity fuels,\] combined with varying degrees of electrification. The most appropriate solution for each application will be determined by the operational profile of the machine, as well as availability of different energy sources at the work site. Many of these different fuel types require significant differences in engine design and can produce different power characteristics which effect transmission and machine design. This makes integrating them into the thousands of machine types used to perform different job functions, a big challenge.Using the vast skills of project partners, this project proposes that through an innovative combination of power system design and electric hybridisation, a flexibly fuelled drop-in replacement powerpack is possible, greatly reducing the barriers to change and accelerating the transition to net zero for many non-road mobile machine applications.

Perkins Engines Company Limited、EquipMake和拉夫堡大学的合作旨在设计、开发和展示一种创新的、预先集成的、高度可配置的电力混合动力系统，该系统能够使用氢或低碳强度燃料运行，广泛的客户可以很容易地将其集成到他们的非公路车辆和机械中。许多非公路车辆和机械制造商缺乏将先进的电力系统集成到他们的产品中的规模和资源。这限制了低碳电力系统在英国非道路移动机械(NRMM)市场的渗透。这将影响工业支持英国政府在建筑和基础设施等工业部门实现净零目标的能力。正如先进推进中心2040年路线图报告中概述的那样，越野汽车的能源过渡将需要各种替代燃料[包括氢气和低碳强度燃料]，并结合不同程度的电气化。对于每种应用，最合适的解决方案将取决于机器的运行概况以及工作现场的不同能源的可用性。许多不同的燃料类型需要在发动机设计上有很大的差异，并且可以产生不同的功率特性，从而影响变速器和机械设计。这使得将它们集成到用于执行不同工作功能的数千种机器类型中是一个巨大的挑战。该项目利用项目合作伙伴的丰富技能，提出通过电力系统设计和电动混合动力的创新组合，灵活地使用燃料的插入式更换电源组是可能的，极大地降低了改变的障碍，并加速了许多非道路移动机器应用向净零的过渡。
