E-Mobility Motors: Two Technologies Rare Earth-Free

The demand for neodymium is expected to grow by 6% annually over the period to 2030, which leads to a significant gap in supply by the end of the decade
Are there enough resources to meet the growing demand and to enable the high uptake of EVs in the coming decades?
The ReFreeDrive project funded by the European Commission Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme has pushed the boundary of two motor technologies which do not use any critical raw material:
- Induction with copper rotor (both die-cast and fabricated versions) and synchronous reluctance (either assisted with ferrite magnets or without).
Advanced design and multiple innovations introduced: optimised electrical steels, special copper alloys, new manufacturing methods, hairpin winding, innovative cooling
