SR Technology Innovations Ltd

SRTI has developed a Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) that has been design in house to meet the needs of the electric and hybrid vehicles. We adopted an novel approach in providing low voltage power distribution for vehicle components and the electronic control needed for vehicles in the same units. This reduced the need for additional fusing and power distribu...

The ElecTra project aims to provide a breakthrough in drivetrain electrification in agricultural vehicles by reducing complex mechanical drivetrain systems, increase efficiency, maximising performance and reducing overall emissions from the vehicle. The technology will also have the flexibility for exploitation in other heavy duty vehicle applications. SR...

The electrified powe...

With future energy systems relying on an increasing amounts of intermittent renewable energy, electricity over supply is expected will be offset by the generation of renewable hydrogen & oxygen via electrolysis. This project aims to build and demonstrate the feasibility of an ultra-high efficiency, zero emission hybrid-powertrain which exploits the proper...

The project will show it is feasibly to unlock the theoretical potential of innovative Free Piston Engine (FPE) technology to deliver increased efficiency and significanly reduced CO2 emissions for hybrid electric vehicles. Free Piston Engines are disruptive technology offering the potential of a 30% efficiency improvement over conventional reciprocating ...

Current state-of-the-art series hybrid powertrains is to use the on-board generator (or fuel cell) as a range extender used to “charge the battery” usually at some pre-determined point of discharge thereby preventing full discharge of the battery/super-capacitor storage system. Modeling has shown this leads to oversized energy storage system components fo...
