New Generation Storage

The New Generation Storage (NGS) Innovation Pact is wholly aligned with the European Union’s energy transition strategy by 2040, and the challenge for the complete electrification of mobility by 2035. Based on a model structured in 8 Work Packages that encompass the entire value chain of production of components, packs, and recycling of batteries, it is proposed to add value to each stage of the process, culminating in a common objective: the creation of a new technological ecosystem in the area of batteries that will highlight the national industry in the global market. Through the cooperation of 47 entities, the aim is to structurally transform the national productive fabric, creating the necessary conditions – in terms of technology and human resources – for an industrial ecosystem capable of mass production of innovative technologies, and a complete value chain that allows world-class end-of-life management.

PIEP participates in developing a POWERPACK box (Battery with built-in power electronics) aimed at thermal management and weight reduction.
