    Kunskapssammanställning Över Introduktionen Av Elbilar

    VTI notat 21-2014, reviderad utgåva 1 www.vti.se/publikationer Utgivningsår 2014 Kunskapssammanställning över introduktionen av elbilar Christina Stave Annelie Carlson Hans Antonson Jan Wenäll Förord VTI skriver i sin verksamhetsplan 2013 att ”framtiden kommer att innebära ökade krav på ett långsiktigt hållbart transportsystem där tillgänglighet, transporteffektivitet, trafiksäkerhet, klimat och miljö är viktiga ingredienser. För att begränsa utsläpp av växthusgaser framhåller EU-kommissionen ett antal åtgärder där det kan förväntas ett ökat forskningsbehov. Det är till exempel ekonomiska styrmedel och nya tekniska lösningar för fordon och infrastruktur. Kraven på ökad energieffektivitet växer, vilket ökar efterfrågan på forsknings- och utvecklingsinsatser för fordon och bränslen, energieffektivt byggande och energieffektiv infrastruktur. Den tekniskt inriktade forskningen behöver kompletteras med forskning och utveckling kring beteende- vetenskapliga, ekonomiska och andra styrmedel i transportpolitiken”. ”Ett övergripande mål inom Sverige och inom EU är att arbeta för att minska energianvändningen där ett stort fokus har legat på att minska elförbrukningen, både inom hushållen och i industrin. Det kan därför upplevas att det finns en målkonflikt med att man inom transportsektorn arbetar för att det ska bli en ökad användning av el för framdrivning i syfte att bli mer energieffektiv. Ett ofta framfört argument är också att elfordon kommer att leda till lägre klimatpåverkan eftersom inga fossila bränslen förbränns under framdrivningen”. I verksamhetsplanen står det vidare att det finns antaganden om att ”miljön kommer att förbättras i stort eftersom elfordon inte släpper ut några emissioner på samma sätt som konventionella fordon. En fördel i sammanhanget är också att det finns bättre möjligheter till rening och kontroll i större kraftverk än vad det gör i varje enskilt fordon”.

    From: Brad Niemcek, Inc. 51 East 42nd Street New York, N.Y. 10017 (212) 867-1490 For: STEED INDUSTRIES, INC. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Itasca, Illinois 60143 4/23/73 CARL A. HAAS Carl A. Haas belongs to a rather exclusive club. Its members are those entrepreneurs in motor racing who can claim to actually making a living at doing something they love. Many aspire to "business" careers in motor racing. Still more love what they are doing. But relatively few make a living at it. Carl Haas is a leader among them. Haas is a 20-year veteran of successful race team management -- a businessman who knows what it takes to "win" in a most demanding business specialty and who does it year after year . at a profit, A German by birth, Carl Haas was an auto enthusiast at an early age. He began racing himself, as an amateur, in 1953. His cars visited race circuits from Nassau to California, and he did well. In 1966 he hung up his goggles and turned full attention to the race car importing business he had founded two years earlier as a part-time enterprise that quickly became a full-time occupation. His business acumen was evident early, in his choices of the right equipment to bring into North America for a growing competitor market, and in the proper method of making that equipment available to his customers. -more- CARL A. HAAS / — 2 He decided in 1961, for instance, that a new competition gearbox developed by a friend, Michael Hewland of England, would have wide application in the competition market here.

    3 -,.3-73 ASU Formula Lightning Race Vehicle Report Prepared for Ohio Aerospace Institute by Murray D. Sirkis With assistance from John B. Happ, III and Nicholas Gilbert Abs_a_ This report describes the drive system in the Arizona State University Formula Lightning electric race car when it participated in the 1994 Cleveland Electric Formula Classic on 9 July 1994. In addition, the telemetry system used to monitor the car's performance and plans for improving the car's performance are described. Introduction Calculated performance data obtained from a computer model of the Formula Lightning electric race car with various drive systems played an important role in the selection of the drive system used in the ASU Formula Lightning at the 1994 Cleveland Electric Formula Classic on 9 July 1994. The fundamental design decision was to use a relatively low power, highly efficient, motor-controller system and to compensate for the consequent reduction in top speed and acceleration by significantly increased range at speed through the use of nickel-cadmium batteries. The drive system in the Arizona State University Formula Lightning electric race car when it participated in the 1994 Cleveland Electric Formula Classic on 9 July 1994 comprised twenty- four, series-connected, nominally six volt, nickel-cadmium batteries manufactured by SAFT NIFE Inc., four brushless permanent magnet motors, four controllers, and a single speed gearbox-differential manufactured by Solectria Corporation. Power was transferred from the motors to the gearbox-differential by means of two Gates Poly Chain GTtoothed belts. Student- designed axle shafts were used between the gearbox-differential and the rear wheels.

    Missouri Advantages for the Aerospace Manufacturing Industry

    Missouri advantages for the aerospace manufacturing industry The collective imagination and power of Missouri’s aerospace industry is as limitless as the sky itself. The state’s long history of leadership in military aircraft has helped to shape the industry through advances in materials, manufacturing, software and public safety. Research at Missouri universities, along with the resources at major aerospace players like Boeing and GKN, promise to take us higher, further, faster. Boeing’s F-15 Strike Eagle, manufactured in St. Louis, MO The Missouri Partnership is a public-private economic development partnership recognized as a top economic development organization in the U.S. We work in partnership with the Hawthorn Foundation, the Missouri Department of Economic Development, the State of Missouri, and economic development agencies across the state. Learn more at www.missouripartnership.com. Five reasons Missouri is right for aerospace manufacturing 1. Thriving industry: Missouri has a robust aerospace manufacturing sector. Missouri is a top 5 state for aerospace manufacturing attractiveness according to a 2016 report by PwC, and it is home to major companies such as Boeing, GKN Aerospace, LMI Aerospace and PAS Technologies. Go to page 3. 2. Quality workforce: Missouri’s talented workers are ready for aerospace manufacturing. In addition to having over 79,000 Missourians currently employed in aerospace and defense manufacturing jobs, Missouri grants 4,000 degrees in engineering related fields annually at nearly 140 degree-granting institutions and has numerous knowledge centers for the aerospace manufacturing industry around the state. Go to page 9. 3. Favorable environment: Missouri’s business environment is suited for companies looking to lead the industry.
