The call aims to enhance the extended lifetime of Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) through innovative approaches to system integration, maintenance, and design. It focuses on increasing the residual value of vehicles by addressing the ageing and degradation of critical components such as electric drive systems, thermal management, and power electronics. The overarching goal is to minimise the environmental impact while maximising resource efficiency and productivity. Proposals are encouraged to leverage holistic analyses, advanced control strategies, and prospective maintenance strategies that align with Circular Economy principles. Additionally, the project encourages the use of FAIR data principles and Open Science practices to ensure broad accessibility and sustainability.
Opening Date: 06 May 2025
Deadline: 04 September 2025

This funding opportunity represents a pre-agreed draft that has not yet been officially approved by the European Commission. The final, approved version is expected to be published in the first quarter of 2025. This draft is provided for informational purposes and may be used to preliminarily form consortia and develop project ideas, but it is offered without any guarantees or warranties.
Expected Outcome
Improved understanding of ageing in BEVs. 20% higher residual value and 20% reduction in resources used during the BEV lifecycle. Sustainable design for re-use and recycling. Enhanced maintenance strategies reducing environmental impact. Traceability via digital product passports.
Scope
The call addresses the critical challenge of improving the residual value and lifecycle of BEVs. It focuses on designing and implementing Circular Economy strategies, analysing critical component ageing and degradation, and developing advanced repair and maintenance solutions.
