SAE 2021 NORTH AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL PROPULSION CONFERENCE A Note from David Filipe, Chairperson, NAIPC Executive Leadership Team

David Filipe Vice President – Vehicle Hardware Modules Ford Motor Company 2021 NAIPC Chairperson

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to invite you to join me and other automotive industry Leaders to this year’s North American International Propulsion Conference (NAIPC) in Chicago. It will be held September 15-17 at the Hilton Hotel, in Downtown Chicago. The 2021 NAIPC theme is titled “Sustainability – Winning the Race to Propulsion 3.0.”

New this year, we have adjusted the name of the conference from powertrain to propulsion to reflect the ongoing evolution in the industry toward electrification. The year’s program will reflect the trending developments in alternative and electrified propulsion systems, including engine, hybrid transmission, battery electric and hydrogen fuel cell technology.

We are currently entering the third phase of a three phase Propulsion systems evolution. The first phase, Propulsion 1.0, is characterized by the rise and dominance of the Internal Combustion Engine. It has provided superior customer convenience, functionality, and value, compared to other alternatives.

2 The second phase, Propulsion 2.0, has very much been characterized by a strong regulatory influence on the continued evolution of propulsion system technologies, including the emergence of electrification to meet ever increasingly stringent global fuel economy and criteria emissions standards. Finally, we believe the third phase, Propulsion 3.0, will be defined by the delivery of propulsion system technologies and supporting business models that serve as enablers to meet consumers’ and society’s expectations for a more sustainable carbon neutral environment.

This Conference will examine Propulsion Strategies through three lenses: Consumer, Business, and the Energy / Technology Sustainable Pathways. On Thursday morning, in the Consumer session, both market demands and regulatory regimes and the solutions to meet them will be highlighted. In the Business session that follows, latest strategies that deliver sustainable solutions profitably will be discussed. To complete the first day, several sustainable energy / technology pathways to satisfy consumers, while exploring the challenges and opportunities for business, will be explored. Friday morning will feature a session on the Challenges of Complex Systems Development covering hardware, software, and testing aspects. The conference will conclude with panels that bring all prior sessions together including the Supplier Panel, which is new a feature to the program, as well as the traditional OEM Panel.

I look forward to seeing you in Chicago to discuss key challenges and opportunities in our business and strategies to succeed.

Best Regards,

David Filipe Vice President – Vehicle Hardware Modules Ford Motor Company

Some product development or enhancements occur after the vehicle is in the hands of the customer. This session brings together experts to share experiences of distributed physical and virtual product development using “Infinite Cycles” of development, update, release, and in-use data aggregation to ensure robust product releases. Allowing 8:05-9:30am physical and simulated ECUs under test to interact with real and simulated hardware, a variety of use cases - including corner-cases, fault injections and feedback from real-world use, strategy, software defects and hardware shortcomings can be found using Hil, Mil, Sil integrated into a model-based design approach.

Pischinger Powertrain Innovation Award recognizes an engineer whose professional career has focused on powertrain technology in a leadership role, and has demonstrated innovation through patents, publications, and/or new products or processes. Technical innovation and overall impact on the advancement of powertrain technology throughout the awardees career, along with their contribution towards advancing SAE’s goal to further global mobility technology, are among the key criteria for receiving this award.

Hitomi Mitsuo Mr. Hitomi has an unrivaled passion and enthusiasm for the inner workings of the internal combustion engine. He has spent nearly 35 years advancing diesel engine development and is credited with the development of the next generation of Mazda engines. In 2000, Mitsuo became General Manager of the Powertrain Advanced Development Department, where he led three groups focused on the development of new engine technology, advanced controls and CAE. In 2005, he began to investigate the feasibility of an engine with a high compression ratio. Integrating his wide range of development experience with technologies for intake/exhaust and emission control systems, he formulated a concept for the world’s highest compression ratio spark ignition engine, which subsequently led to the development of the groundbreaking SKYACTIV engines. Although this next generation technology was an extraordinary accomplishment for Mr. Hitomi and his team to be quite proud of, he felt the greatest pride in the confidence the team members found within themselves as they walked through their path forward. Mr. Hitomi’s tremendous technological intellect has been disseminated through numerous published papers, conference presentations and by his active engagement with many trade associations. Congratulations to Mr. Hitomi on his achievements and thank you for your contributions to the industry.

Daniel Nicholson For over 33 years, he has made numerous significant contributions to the field of propulsion systems and has led a diverse team of over 8,500 engineers, in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia, to develop the most innovative propulsion systems for all GM vehicles. Dan and his team accomplished one of the automotive industry’s most significant disruptions with the 230-mile, single-charge all-electric Chevrolet Bolt BEV. This pivotal vehicle marks the first cost-effective long-range BEV. It forever changed GM’s propulsion strategy and initiated key industry alliances. Dan’s accomplishments and influences do not stop here. He has authored a number of books, journal and position papers, technical publications, contibuted to SAE Standards, and under his leadership, GM Global Propulsion Systems has consistently produced over 60% of the General Motors intellectual property which has been implemented into production. His boundless support of SAE extends throughout the organization, the technical and organizing committees and most notably, his steadfast zeal for the SAE Foundation and their STEM initiatives. He exemplifies the term “ambassador”. For these and the countless other contributions he has made to this industry, we congratulate Dan and thank him for his innovation and unwavering dedication.
