EASYBAT’s mission is to address battery integration challenges by defining new concepts for the smart insertion of batteries and by developing generic interfaces for electric vehicles. EASYBAT aims at enabling smooth batteries integration and swap. The

EASYBAT integration system will be developed for fully electric vehicles. EASYBAT will develop (i) generic interfaces to improve interoperability between the battery and the vehicle on board-systems and (ii) new components for an easy & safe location and quick integration of the battery in the vehicle. (iii) At each stage of the project, the EASYBAT partners will assess the feasibility of the overall battery swapping concept considering costs, logistics, and environmental aspects. The EASYBAT system performance will be compared to alternative solutions for EVs.

EASYBAT will offer solutions enabling cost effective, environmental friendly switchable batteries and will contribute to unleashing the EVs potential for a wider use.
