Order Proceedings

THE FUTURE OF THE POWERTRAIN lies in sustainable commercial vehicles.

Powertrain diversification was the main topic at the anniversary edition of the prestigious ICPC conference. In cooperation with SAE International, AVL invited around 180 representatives of manufacturers and suppliers for trucks, buses, agricultural engineering and construction machinery from 22 nations to discuss current challenges in the global commercial vehicle industry in mid-May. As a widely renowned, cross-sectoral platform, the international conference helps OEMs as well as technology suppliers to identify and unlock mutual synergies. In the accompanying trade exhibition, AVL showcased a selection of promising technologies. Apart from the exhibited batteries, e-axles and fuel cells, there were also virtual and simulation areas, where visitors had a chance to explore some fascinating topics.

Held for the tenth time, the three-day conference offered high-ranking representatives of industry and science a platform to catch up on the latest technical solutions and meet new potential partners for synergies at the ICPC side events organized by AVL.

Many high-level experts shared their expertise about current and upcoming emission legislations, electrification and digitalization trends with us:

• Futurologist Matthias Horx from the Zukunftsinstitut talked about how he chose to comprehend technology in terms of dynamics and evolution and outlined a roadmap for the future
• Dorothee Saar from Deutsche Umwelthilfe e.V. (Environmental Action Germany) outlined the challenges that need to be addressed to ensure efficient and clean transportation
• Gerhard Stempfer, ZF Friedrichshafen AG, talked about the effects of e-mobility on the supplier chain
• Alois Danninger, AVL Manager Engine Controls, explained what type of drive control is needed in long-haul trucks to lastingly reduce emissions and fuel consumption in real traffic conditions.
• Ozan Nalcioglu, Engineering Director of Ford Otosan, talked about the game-changing potential of digitalization and in that context shared his views on the future of ADAS for trucks.
• Krzysztof Paciura from Cummins Inc. presented the commercial vehicle battery solutions
• Dr.-Ing. Markus Schwaderlapp and Dr. Ing. Paul Grzeschik ,Deutz AG addressed the ICE optimized for off-ooad hybrid powertrains
• Dr.-Ing. Joachim Sobotzik from John Deere European Technology Innovation Center showed the Tractor/Implement System
• Stefano Golini, FPT Industrial, showed the application of development and testing of an innovative gas engine for heavy duty trucks
• Dr. Carl Hergart, Paccar Inc., explained the latest powertrain trends and developments in the commercial vehicle industry

We are looking forward to the next International Commercial Powertrain Conference in 2021 to exchange the latest developments and review the solutions applied to meet current challenges.
