The transition to electric mobility is accelerating across the UK, but **fleet operators continue to face major challenges in managing battery performance, reliability, and lifespan**. Current battery management systems rely on conventional electrical and thermal sensors that only provide indirect data on battery condition. These systems often fail to detect early-stage cell degradation, leading to unexpected breakdowns, inefficient charging, and costly replacements. The limited accuracy of existing Battery Management Systems (BMS) also constrains predictive maintenance and undermines confidence in large-scale EV adoption for commercial fleets such as buses, vans, and logistics vehicles. The **Q-BATT** project addresses these challenges by exploring how **quantum sensing** and **artificial intelligence (AI)** can transform the way electric-vehicle fleets are monitored and maintained. Led by **Incode Technology UK Ltd**, this three-month feasibility study investigates the potential of a **quantum-enhanced Battery Management System (BMS)** that can provide real-time, high-precision insights into EV battery health and performance. Q-BATT combines **diamond-based quantum magnetometry** with **Incode's causal-AI analytics platform** to deliver a next-generation monitoring solution. The **quantum sensor** offers exceptional magnetic-field sensitivity, enabling precise mapping of current flow within the battery. The **AI engine**, operating at the edge within the vehicle, interprets this data to estimate the **State-of-Health (SoH)** and **State-of-Charge (SoC)** of the battery with greater accuracy than existing systems. Together, these technologies provide a **hybrid quantum-classical solution** that supports predictive maintenance, optimised charging, and extended battery life, improving reliability and reducing costs for fleet operators. **Q-BATT** directly supports the UK's **Net Zero** and **transport-decarbonisation goals** by extending the usable life of **EV batteries**, reducing replacement frequency, and enabling **second-life applications** in energy storage. These outcomes contribute to a more **sustainable circular economy** for EV batteries and strengthen the UK's position in the growing **quantum-technology supply chain**. During **Phase 1**, the project will carry out **simulation**, **use-case definition**, and **business-case development** to validate the **technical and commercial feasibility** of the **Quantum-Enhanced BMS**. It will also assess **scalability** across multiple EV platforms and identify opportunities for **Phase 2 prototype testing** with UK fleet operators, building confidence in its **operational readiness** and **real-world applicability**. By combining **advanced quantum sensing** with **explainable AI**, **Q-BATT** aims to deliver a **practical, scalable route** to **smarter, safer, and more sustainable electric-vehicle operations**, driving **innovation**, **reducing maintenance costs**, and ensuring **long-term resilience** within the UK transport ecosystem.

This is the **first-of-its-kind** application to track delivery drivers' carbon footprints and make precise recommendations to reduce them. Furthermore, the application follows up with delivery drivers until a net zero is achieved. Our goal-based incentive motivates them to reduce their carbon footprint in their day-to-day operations. Because a substantial amount of emissions come from delivery drivers in supplier chains, our application focuses on delivery drivers' emissions that can be reduced from the **total supply chain's emissions**. "TranzGreen" simply measure each delivery driver's contribution to the specific supply chain's emissions. Then, based on their scenario, our system generates emission-cutting recommendations. The advice differs for each delivery driver because it is generated based on their situation (i.e., personalised recommendation). As a result, this is incredibly efficient, and delivery drivers can lower their emissions by following the application's recommendations. Our application contributes to the UK government's objective of reaching net zero emissions by 2050\. Also, help taxpayers reduce their carbon footprint and help them make significant changes for themselves and their families.
