Dana Incorporated has announced it has earned the New Power Technology Award and the Achievement of the Year Award for its Spicer Electrified e-Powertrain at the 2021 Diesel Progress Summit and Awards.
The awards recognize Dana's ability to provide a complete, fully integrated e-Powertrain to customers, including the electric drive system featuring Dana's motor, inverter, gearbox, and thermal-management, as well as the high-voltage energy management system which includes software and controls, the charge control unit, high-voltage junction box, onboard charger, as well as other low-voltage auxiliary systems.
The Diesel Progress Summit Awards are awarded to commercially available powertrains, with a focus on the dramatic changes that are being driven by emission regulations and advances in hybridization, electrification, and other technologies. The New Power Technology Award specifically honors a supplier who has developed a component or technology in support of non-diesel applications, while the Achievement of the Year Award is given to the "best of the best" among the 2021 award winners.
Dana began supplying its complete e-Powertrain in early 2020 with numerous customers adopting the technology. Dana integration services are all backed by model, software, hardware, and driver-in-loop validation and verification testing to ensure optimal function and high levels of safety.
