Issues and Foresight

Electric vehicles
All-electric vehicles operate with a battery and an electric motor. The large-capacity battery has to be recharged with the vehicle stationary at a charging station. Environmental benefits Challenges to overcome Progress in terms of range and costs
Issues and Foresight

Hybrid vehicles
[currently being updated] The vehicle is equipped with a combined IC/electric powertrain system and two energy storage systems: a fuel tank and a battery. Energy use optimization Good environmental performances Technical and economic challenges
Sustainable mobility
Innovation and Industry

Sustainable mobility
Reducing CO 2 and pollutant emissions, diversifying energy sources and incorporating the evolution in transport modes: these are the challenges associated with sustainable mobility for industry. IFPEN channels its expertise into addressing this triple challenge, within the framework of the IFPEN Transports Energie Carnot Institute . Its technological offer is
