When it comes to the electrification of our transport networks, road-based Electric Vehicles (EVs) are only part of the story. In this edition of Focus, we explore how global green initiatives and sustainability are driving electrification in the non-automotive and commercial vehicle sectors. Our cover stories investigate the complex power demands that engineers will face designing the next generation of hybrid engines for agriculture and construction, the electrification of railway transport, and the advanced sensing and data processing required for the advent of Automated Guided Vehicles. And make sure you donât miss the interview with resident battery specialist, Marc Eichhorn, who sat down to talk smart batteries and e-mobility. We hope you enjoy reading this edition, and it helps you think about what can be achieved.
