High-speed (HS) electromechanical conversion (EC) technology has proven to be a feasible solution to reducing energy use and emissions in the industrial sectors. High rotational speeds are beneficial for improving the energy efficiency and reducing the cost of EC systems. Meanwhile, realizing these benefits presently is challenging because existing modelling and design practices are not fully capable to account for the physical effects arising at high operational speeds. DIGI-REINFORCE offers the physical and virtual test platforms where next-level data-driven research is conducted and next-gen HS-EC technologies are validated. The infrastructure is to facilitate the development of HS electrical machines operating in the megawatts power range by providing the facilities, access to data, technological know-how, and services required for knowledge base development and design validation. It will also promote growth and internationalization of the regional RDI clean-tech ecosystem.
