optiTruck Stakeholder Questionnaire

optiTruck is a Horizon2020 project targeting optimal fuel consumption with predictive powertrain control and calibration for intelligent Trucks bringing together the most advanced technologies from powertrain control and intelligent transport systems in order to achieve a global optimum for fuel consumption (at least 20% reduction) as well as other energy sources and consumables while achieving Euro VI emission standards for heavy duty road haulage (40t).

optiTruck established a Stakeholder Forum, launched in February 2018 with the organisation of an international Europe-USA webinar on "Reducing emissions with innovative powertrains".

The main outcome of this first Stakeholder Forum event was the identification of a number of common challenges. This short questionnaire aims at collecting the input of interested stakeholders on how to tackle those challenges.

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 713788.

Participation to the Survey

The nature of this survey is completely voluntary. Participants are not forced to take part into the project and no negative consequences will derive from declining the participation.
