These projects are expected to deliver an incremental reduction in total motor and power electronics system costs through optimised design for manufacture. A key challenge is to increase 30% the specific torque and specific power of electric motors with a 50% increase in maximum operating speed while halving motor losses. Additionally, the motors will lower their cost through reduced need for rare earth magnets and designs optimised for lower cost manufacturing processes.
As for power electronics, the projects are expected to deliver a 50% increase in its power density, a 50% reduction in losses and the ability to operate with the same cooling liquids and temperatures used for the combustion engine in hybrid configurations.
