Being the automotive sector a trillion dollar market and
given the existence of multiple low carbon powertrain
technologies and sunk investments in specific powertrains
technologies, the possibility of "betting on the wrong
horse" makes the transition to low carbon vehicles a very
risky process for incumbent automotive companies (global
automotive manufacturers and their tier one suppliers).
Through these technology developments these incumbent
companies are primarily trying to maintain or increase
their captured added value of the automotive value chain
and their global sales market share. For new entrants with
no existing interests, the risks are lower given they are
not compelled to capture most of the value of the
powertrain technology, giving them the possibility of
sharing it with other parts of the value chain (suppliers,
technology developers etc.)

Another major focus was 48V systems some in EVs but mainly for
microhybrid (stop-start) and mild hybrid (torque assist) for
managing the now huge amounts of energy in and out with new
forms of harvesting and tougher duty cycles and also more
power-hungry accessories. That has resulted in a large number
of redesigned and new accessories in anticipation of new
standards.
High Power Energy Harvesting (HPEH) is a term beginning to be
used for creation of electricity where it is needed using
ambient "free" energy. That zero-pollution, high-energy

difference (thermoelectrics and heat pumps) and movement
(electrodynamics).
