Controlled Power Technologies, in partnership with Ricardo, Tata Motors European Technical Centre (TMETC) and Provector, is applying its low voltage electric motor technology to the rear driveline of a B-segment city car. The consortium has secured a funding award from Innovate UK, the UK’s innovation agency, who will contribute £1.8m of the total £3.4m investment.

Controlled Power Technologies has invested £1 million to further industrialise its CO2 and NOx reduction capabilities for the global automotive and transport industries. A developer of vehicle driveline electrification technology, CPT’s investment is supported by the Long Term Automotive Supply Chain Competitiveness (LTASC) programme, which in turn is funded by the UK’s Advanced Manufacturing Supply Chain Initiative (AMSCI).

Controlled Power Technologies (CPT) and Eminox have reached agreement to collaborate on the development of electric supercharging solutions to reduce fuel consumption.  By combining CPT’s electric supercharger with Eminox’s SCRT technology, which itself combines Continuously Regenerating Trap (CRT) and Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology to reduce emissions of vehicles already in service, the companies plan to demonstr...

  Whilst showcasing its Switched-Reluctance (SR) motor-generator technology at the SAE 2015 Hybrid & Electric Vehicles Technologies Symposium, Controlled Power Technologies (CPT) witnessed an growing interest in 48V mild hybrid vehicles.

Controlled Power Technologies’ SpeedStart micro-mild hybrid and Tigers energy recovery systems will be incorporated into the Advanced Diesel Electric Powertrain project known as ‘Adept’ announced by Ricardo today at a low carbon vehicle technology exhibition showcasing innovative R&D from the UK's leading automotive technology companies and universities.  The Adept project objectives are aimed at combining next generati...

The UK-based low carbon engine technology specialist, Controlled Power Technologies (CPT), says that the new 48 volt standard proposed by leading automakers provides an ideal compromise for performance and cost in the development of a new generation of affordable super fuel efficient cars. With global CO2 emission targets rapidly converging, the auto industry has only a decade to achieve almost another 30 per cent reduction by 2022 putting pres...

Technology developer, Controlled Power Technologies (CPT) will launch this week what is believed to be the world’s first water cooled electric supercharger developed for ‘quasi continuous’ boosting of commercial diesel engines including those developed for off highway applications. Known as Cobra, the market ready technology will debut at the world’s leading automotive engineering conference focused on air boosting technologies, which is ...

Nick Pascoe, chief executive officer of Controlled Power Technologies (CPT), a UK-based company specialising in cost-effective CO2 reduction measures for the global automotive industry, will address the issue of recruiting professional engineers at the SMMT’s International Automotive Summit today (Tuesday 12 June), which is being held during the Canary Wharf London motorexpo. CPT has been busily recruiting engineers in response to increased d...

As part of its strategy of developing solutions to reduce CO2 emissions, Valeo has acquired the Variable Torque Enhancement System (VTES) business of British automotive technology development company Controlled Power Technologies (CPT).

The low carbon vehicle specialist Controlled Power Technologies is developing a 48 volt version of its electric supercharger based on its variable torque enhancement system known as VTES. The more powerful higher voltage variant will support moves by European vehicle manufacturers announced earlier this year to introduce 48 volt passenger vehicle power networks to help meet the requirement for lower fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

Controlled Power Technologies (CPT), which is working on a number of low voltage ‘micro-mild’ hybrid innovations, is presenting its cost efficient carbon reduction technologies at the UK’s leading low carbon vehicle conference and ride & drive event this week. The ‘LCV2011’ conference on 7-8 September is being hosted by Cenex at the Rockingham Motor Speedway in Corby, Northamptonshire. Meanwhile, the company’s new ‘LC Super Hybri...
