In the HyBoost project, Ricardo, Ford Motor Company, Control Power Technologies (CPT) and the European Advanced Lead Acid Battery Consortium (EALABC) demonstrated a concept they termed “intelligent electrification”. ADEPT will use CPT’s SpeedStart micro-mild hybrid (BSG and stop-start) and TIGERS energy recovery systems.
