EMERALD focuses on energy use optimization and on the seamless integration of the FEV into the transport and energy infrastructure, by delivering clear advances over the state-of-the-art. The goal is to assist the FEV in becoming a successful commercial product. To this end, EMERALD will innovate a range of novel ICT solutions, each one seamlessly integrated with the others, providing a multifaceted and comprehensive approach on these issues. EMERALD will introduce Integrated in-vehicle energy management, comprising: - Dynamic energy-driven management of FEV auxiliaries, tightly integrated with consumption prediction functionality, enabling pre-emptive energy conservation measures. - Energy-efficient long-range route planning and optimization, enabling extension of FEV's driving range and automatic scheduling of recharging stops en route. - Performance-centric machine learning for consumption prediction, introducing optimization and cooperative training of machine learning functions targeted for energy consumption and traffic prediction based on experience. - Driver profiling functionalities, through monitoring of acceleration/braking patterns, for the enhancement of route consumption prediction functionality. -\tV2G traffic and consumption data synchronization, as a new cooperative information-sharing scheme. - User-centric charge and discharge management, enabling automatically-generated, optimal for the user, charge and discharge schedules, accessible both on-board and on his mobile phone. EMERALD will also introduce: Enhanced FEV-related power demand prediction and power flow management support, taking advantage of consumption patterns as shared in a cooperative manner by the FEVs themselves, as well as from FEVs' recharging bookings; Cooperative FEV fleet management, though holistic and dynamic, multi-parameter, fleet control optimization, taking into account energy and recharging limitations; and FEV-specific driver training for energy efficiency.
