HEFT is part of the Cluster E-VOLVE, that groups the EU projects:

• RHODaS: Reinventing High-Performance Power Converters For Heavy-Duty Electric Transport
• EM-TECH: Innovative E-Motor Technologies Covering E-Axles and E-Corners Vehicle Architectures for High-Efficient and Sustainable E-Mobility
• HIPE: High-Performance Power Electronics Integration
• HIGHSCAPE: High Efficiency, High Power Density, Cost-Effective, Scalable, and Modular Power Electronics and Control Solutions for Electric Vehicles
• SCAPE: Switching-Cell-Array-Based Power Electronics Conversion for Future Electric Vehicles
• POWERDRIVE: Power Electronics Optimisation for Next Generation Electric Vehicle Components
• MULTI-MOBY: Safe, Secure, High Performing Multi-Passenger and Multi-Commercial Uses Affordable EVs
• MAXIMA: Modular Axial Flux Motor for Automotive
• VOLTCAR: Design, Manufacturing, and Validation of Ecocycle Electric Traction Motor
• EFFEREST: Efficient User-Centric Energy Management Systems for Optimized EVs
o SMARTCORNERS: User-Centred Optimal Design Of Electric Vehicle with Smart E-Corners

The cluster aims at producing greater impact acknowledging the importance of connecting parallel R&D activities funded on complementary areas.

The member projects in the E-VOLVE Cluster have decided to prove the higher potential of synergies between projects. As a result, E-VOLVE Coordinators trust that the virtual cluster will produce a greater impact by delivering innovations that cover a wide range of EVs components, designed especially for the new (3rd) generation of EVs to meet the future mobility needs in both urban environments and inter-city trips, while meeting as well the requirements in energy efficiency, usability and cost that the market demands.

The E-VOLVE virtual Cluster focuses on developing groups of components that, working all together in synergy, can meet future requirements in energy efficiency, fast charging, and increased driving range.
