The Project Aims to Provide a Sustainable Solution to Contribute to the Decarbonization of the Transport Sector in the World. Stellantis Has Joined SENAI to Develop Technology for Converting Internal Combustion Vehicles to Electric Vehicles.

With the transport market increasingly close to decarbonization and electrification of automobiles, several companies are investing in the segment. Stellantis is one of them, which has a project in partnership with SENAI under development. The initiative aims to convert internal combustion vehicles into electric vehicles, contributing to a more sustainable future in the transport sector. The project also has the partnership of Weg and FuelTech companies for its development.

SENAI and Stellantis Join Forces to Contribute to the Decarbonization of Transport in a New Electric Vehicle Conversion Project

In partnership with the SENAI A3 program from Rota 2030, Stellantis is developing a project for the conversion of electric vehicles.

The initiative aims to convert new and used light commercial vehicles with internal combustion engines to propulsion with electric powertrains.

Stellantis has been investing in sustainable initiatives for its operations for several years. However, the electric vehicle conversion project has allowed for further expansion of these initiatives. The company now aims to build a sustainable and profitable business that promotes the circular economy in the markets in which it operates.

The Director of Product Programs and Planning at Stellantis for South America, Breno Kamei, commented on the project. He emphasized that the initiative is being developed only for commercial vehicle fleets, but the intention is to expand to other models.

In this way, decarbonization in the transport sector could become accessible over the next few years.

Meanwhile, the Operations Manager at the SENAI Institute of Innovation in Embedded Systems, Leonardo Oliveira, highlighted: “For SENAI, the project represents an excellent opportunity to develop competencies in order to contribute increasingly to the evolution of technologies aimed at the decarbonization of the economy, sustainability, and circular economy.”

Now, Stellantis will continue its efforts and testing to ensure the best outcome of the decarbonization and electric vehicle conversion project with SENAI.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Air bubbles from 3 million years ago extracted from Antarctic ice reveal that the current level of CO₂ has already surpassed that of the ancient, warm world, when the sea was up to 20 meters higher and there were no factories or cars burning fuel.

Brazil went to China to seek money and technology to reinvent TV and bring the internet to places where fiber does not reach. The mission negotiated with the BRICS Bank led by Dilma and paved the way for a Chinese rival of Starlink to connect the Amazon.

About 150 workers are driving, one by one, 4,585 BYD electric cars off a 220-meter ship at the Port of Itajaí. The 48-hour mega-operation is the largest shipment from the Chinese automaker in Santa Catarina this year.

Iceland is going to lower a drill five kilometers to reach rock at 400 degrees and try to extract clean energy on a scale that a common well cannot achieve.
