The project is to further develop a production technical laboratory at ASSAR Industrial Innovation Arena, which will strengthen the region\u2019s possibilities for the manufacture of electrical machinery for electric vehicles. The decision to invest SEK 21 million was taken on Thursday 4 June by Region V\u00e4stra G\u00f6taland.<\/p>\n

Leif Pehrsson, CEO, IDC West Sweden AB<\/p><\/div>\n

IDC West Sweden applied for the project known as \u201cFurther development of a production technical laboratory for electrical drivelines\u201d. The point of departure for the investment will be possibilities and conclusions drawn from projects already completed through the ASSAR Industrial Innovation Arena<\/a> in collaboration with the University of Sk\u00f6vde<\/a>, Science Park Sk\u00f6vde<\/a> and manufacturing companies. ASSAR is a node that is receiving greater international recognition.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fact that ASSAR Industrial Innovation Arena is a node with international excellence entails that the manufacturing companies that work in V\u00e4stra G\u00f6taland can really strengthen their international competitiveness\u201d says Leif Pehrsson, CEO, IDC West Sweden AB.<\/p>\n

The aim of the project is to further develop and reinforce the already existing laboratory for driveline systems to electric vehicles by expanding in the open collaborative environment of ASSAR in Sk\u00f6vde. Through the project, ASSAR will be able to take a further step as an international center for research and development within production processes for electrical drivelines. The build-up of knowledge that takes place between manufacturing companies, their suppliers and academic partners is a decisive factor for them to be able to strengthen their positions in international competition.<\/p>\n

“Through the public fundings, we will continue to expand the laboratory in ASSAR Industrial Innovation Arena in order to support the development of production processes for electrical drivelines for automotive industry. The granted funding firmly establish that ASSAR is a \u201cCenter of Excellence\u201d where education, innovation and research excels at providing new solutions for industry\u201d says CEO Leif Pehrsson, IDC West Sweden AB.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe manufacturing industry is undergoing a huge technological shift in the form of electrification. This technology should be able to be manufactured in V\u00e4stra G\u00f6taland. Resources are needed which will make it possible and strengthen the manufacturing industry. Climate transition demands innovative environments such as IDC and ASSAR. The investment in a production technical lab for electrical drivelines means that important development work that Region V\u00e4stra G\u00f6taland has contributed with for several years can be further intensified\u201d according to Kristina Jon\u00e4ng, (Center Party), Chairperson, Regional Development Committee of V\u00e4stra G\u00f6taland region.<\/p>\n

The collaborative partners hope that this will be the basis for a positive industrial development in V\u00e4stra G\u00f6taland, for a sustainable future industry.<\/p>\n
