Driving range is one of the key sales drivers of battery electric vehicles and to the end customers, every kilometer counts. There are several ways the total efficiency of the vehicle can be increased, such as improving aerodynamics or decreasing vehicle weight, but one of the major contributors is an efficient thermal management system (VTMS).

As the world seeks sustainable energy alternatives, fuel cells and electrolyzers emerge as a promising solution. These electrochemical devices play critical roles in the clean energy landscape. 

Global initiatives and actions to reach long-term climate goals are evidently resulting in the development and industrialization of new electrolyzer systems. Significant growth of announced electrolyzer projects is forecasted each year and solid oxide electrolyzers (SOEC) are one of the most promising technologies.

Electromobility is facing a key challenge: battery charging times must be minimized in order to increase the acceptance of electric vehicles. This is of key importance as, alongside range, charging time is one of the most important factors for user satisfaction.

To determine if an automated driving function is safe, billions of test kilometers would be required. Physical testing and real-world prototypes simply cannot efficiently handle such a massive test volume. Virtualization offers a more sustainable option that can manage the enormous test volume required at a much lower cost.
