Research And Development Services And Related Consultancy Services – Fe 03.0659/2025/Lrb - Resilient Emergency Power Supply For Road Maintenance Departments. Road And Highway Maintenance Departments Must Be Operational Around The Clock, Even In Extreme Weather Conditions And Extended Power Outages. With The Planned Switch To Battery-Electric Winter Service Vehicles, Electricity Requirements Will Also Increase Significantly. A Reliable Emergency Power Supply To Charge The Vehicles (E-Trucks, E-Mgt), To Operate The Heating Systems And To Ensure The Workshop Functionality For At Least 72 Hours Is Therefore Absolutely Necessary. The Aim Of The Research Project Is To Develop A Concept For Emergency Power Supply For These Facilities. Various Technologies, Including Battery Storage And Emergency Generators, Are Systematically Evaluated Based On Reliability, Cost-Effectiveness, Usability And Co₂ Emissions. The Results Provide A Well-Founded Decision-Making Basis For Planning Suitable Systems, Strengthen The Resilience Of Winter Service As A Critical Infrastructure And Provide An Important Impetus For The Further Electrification Of The Vehicle Fleet.
