Powering EU Net Zero Future by Escalating Zero Emission HDVs and Logistic Intelligence

重型车辆约占欧盟道路运输二氧化碳排放量的25%，约占欧盟总排放量的6%。根据《巴黎协定》和《绿色交易目标》，法规(EU)2019/1242为HDV设定了二氧化碳排放标准(从2019年8月14日起)，强制向零排放车辆与车队的无缝整合过渡。根据欧洲2050年的目标，Escalate的目标是展示用于长途应用的高效率zHDV动力总成(最高可增加10%)，这些动力总成将提供800公里的续航里程，无需加油/充电，并在实际条件下覆盖至少500公里的平均每日运行(6个月以上)。Escalate将通过遵循模块化和可伸缩性方法来实现这一点，该方法从硬件和软件创新的？级开始，目标是在第一个Sprint中达到？级，并最终通过其2个Sprint-V周期在项目结束时达到d级。Escalate建立在围绕三个主要创新领域的新概念之上，这三个领域是：i)设计精良的标准化、成本效益高的模块化和可扩展的多动力总成组件；ii)快速燃料和电网友好型充电解决方案；iii)数字双胞胎(DT)和基于人工智能的管理工具，考虑充电基础设施和车队结构的容量、可用性、速度和性质。在整个项目生命周期中，将进行5个试点、5个DT和5个TCO案例研究(目标是降低10%)，以及他们通过TransSensusLCA实现的环境绩效。最终目标是基于用于3种zHDV(b-HDV、f-HDV、r-HDV)的商业模式创新，开发具有TRL7/8的精心设计的模块化构建块。此外，还将编写3份白皮书，其中一份将有助于根据成果和政策评估确定减少高密度汽车温室气体排放的途径

Heavy-duty vehicles account for about 25% of EU road transport CO2 emissions and about 6% of total EU emissions. In line with the Paris Agreement and Green Deal targets, Regulation (EU) 2019/1242 setting CO2 emission standards for HDVs (from August 14, 2019) forces the transition to a seamless integration of zero-emission vehicles into fleets. In line with the European 2050 goals ESCALATE aims to demonstrate high-efficiency zHDV powertrains (up to 10% increase) for long-haul applications that will provide a range of 800 km without refueling/recharging and cover at least 500 km average daily operation (6+ months) in real conditions. ESCALATE will achieve this by following modularity and scalability approach starting from the ß-level of hardware and software innovations and aiming to reach the ?-level in the first sprint and eventually the d-level at the project end through its 2 sprint-V-cycle. ESCALATE is built on the novel concepts around 3 main innovation areas, which are: i) Standardized well-designed, cost effective modular and scalable multi powertrain components; ii) Fast Fueling & Grid-friendly charging solutions; and iii) Digital Twin (DT) & AI-based management tools considering capacity, availability, speed, and nature of the charging infrastructures as well as the fleet structures. Throughout the project lifetime, 5 pilots, 5 DTs and 5 case studies on TCO (with the target of 10% reduction), together with their environmental performance via TranSensusLCA will be performed. The ultimate goal is to develop well-designed modular building blocks with a TRL7/8 based on business model innovations used for 3 types of zHDVs {b-HDV,f-HDV,r-HDV}. Furthermore, 3 white papers will be produced, one of which will contribute defining the pathway for reducing well-to-wheel GHG emissions from HDVs based on results and policy assessments
