Abstract
This study aims to provide an overview of the current state-of-the-art technology and the research challenges that lie ahead for the electric vehicle (EV) ecosystem in Europe, including both batteries and hydrogen fuel-cells, which must be overcome to enable the user acceptance of alternative powertrains with respect to the conventional internal combustion engine (ICE). With a focus on the automotive supply industry, this study addresses the different aspects along the entire value chain of the respective technologies and how they can be integrated within a sector which has been dominated by the ICE as the prime mover of road vehicles for over a century. CLEPA, the European Association of Automotive Suppliers, supports the Paris agreement and is ready to contribute to achieving climate neutrality while maintaining competitiveness through a technology-open approach.
