We are excited to introduce our sister project, BEETHOVEN!
About BEETHOVEN:
BEETHOVEN, “Substitution of Rare-Earths for Advanced Novel Magnets in Energy and Transport Applications,” is on a mission to develop innovative and sustainable advanced magnetic materials that substitute REE in the energy and transportation sectors.
This project will work on developing and upscaling 3 types of magnetic phases: high-entropy alloys, ferrite-based composites, and W-type ferrites, which could be deployed at large scale in the permanent magnets market.
Substitution will be demonstrated in final applications by developing REE-bonded magnets for automotive components and by designing and building prototypes for an REE-lean wind generator, an REE-free flywheel, and an REE-free/lean e-motor for electric vehicles.
The key technologies, skills, and materials to achieve this impact will be developed within EU borders, contributing to a more resilient, autonomous, and industrially competitive Europe.
Discussions with BEETHOVEN regarding scientific and technological collaboration are ongoing – stay tuned for more!
