Higher Voltage, Megawatt Charging System compatible, modular powertrain for Heavy Duty Vehicles (HDV) (2ZERO Partnership)HORIZON-CL5-2027-03-D5-05

Deadline
14/04/2027, 17:00 (Brussels)
Application model
Single-stage application, due by the deadline below.

This Horizon Europe Cluster 5 topic funds demonstration of modular, high-voltage (above 800V) powertrains for heavy-duty battery-electric vehicles, built for compatibility with Megawatt Charging Systems. The targeted outcome is roughly a 10% cut in on-board charging losses while keeping the powertrain modular and safe. The scope also covers modular, removable battery packs designed for a possible second-life use, plus a lifetime cost comparison against lower-voltage systems. The budget is €8.0 million per project, with 2 projects expected, for €16 million in total. Projects can start at any technology readiness level and are expected to reach TRL 7.
