ZEFES : Zero Emission flexible vehicle platforms with modular powertrains serving the long-haul Freight Eco System

Long-haul BEVs and FCEVs need to become more affordable and reliable, more energy efficient, with a longer range per single charge,and a reduced charging time to meet the user’s needs. Next to those, there is a real need to take zero-emission long-haul goods transportin Europe to the next level by executing real-world demonstrations of BEVs and FCEVs spread all over Europe; this also requires thattechnology soon can deliver on promised benefits (easy handling, similar driving hours & charging/fueling, and high speeds, and ability tooperate in complex transport supply chains); flexible and abundant charging points for the rising number of vehicles must be implementedfast and to support this, novel charging concepts are needed
