Innovativeness:

Potential market penetration assessed lower than 3% on the reference year n-3 (2019).

Necessity:

The technology is required for safe vehicle operation.

Testing Methodology:

The proposed test methodology is a combination of modelling approach and physical test to calculate the CO2 savings for improved electrical components.
