Project duration: 1 January 2016 – 31 December 2018

Objective

This network of infrastructure is part of the Lighthouse Program “Raw material solutions for a sustainable European Mobility industry”. The different projects in this lighthouse program on Networks of infrastructure (NoI), and education are interlinked in order to create the optimal solutions to bring technology to the market. More specifically there are three proposals for NoI related to this Lighthouse Program e.g. body and chassis, e-energy and powertrain.

The solution (technology)

The goal of this network is to set up a collaboration between partners that master all parts of the value chain, provide interlinking between the different NoI’s and in the end set up projects with these different partners in order to speed up the introduction of new raw materials in the mobility industry. Last but not least the NoI will provide a solid base to the initiation and growing of long-life-learning programs.
