Environment
Session CodeSETCP1Room Nicollet Ballroom

Session3:00 p.m.

Innovation means more than transferring technologies from the automotive application to the small powertrain applications. Different boundary conditions,production technologies, product time lines and development resources as well costumer demands need novel approaches and ideas. In this panel we will
discuss about possible future energy sources and energy paths for small powertrain applications, if and how the changing global environment will lead to amore global development approach, what future CO2 regulations mean for small powertrains and if the future will bring more technology diversification ormore reduction of powertrain propulsion variety?

Panel Discussion: Transition to Electric Propulsion for Small Engine Applications
Session CodeSETCP3

Room Nicollet Ballroom

Session10:00 a.m.

In the discussion about the transition of propulsion technologies for small engine applications to electric there are several unresolved issues: are there any
limits like power or energy storage for this transition? Does the transition (speed) depend on the application and are there synergies between applications
which can be used? How different is the small engine application world from the automotive one? Can we guess about a timeline and what are the majorbottlenecks for the transition? Amongst others these are the major topics to be discussed in this panel. Learn more about the ParticipantsSmall Powertrains and Energy Systems Technology Conference
