LEVIS
Succesful LEVIS partner meeting in rainy VIGO
The partners in the LEVIS project met to discuss progress in developing lightweight EV components using eco-design and circular economy approaches. The consortium will demonstrate the feasibility of producing these components in three real-case demonstrators. The meeting covered designs, trials, strategies, and solutions for modelling and simulations, while discussing next steps.
A closer look at the CO2 impacts of charge points
Although overall electric vehicles are the better choice when it comes to CO2 emissions, it is always good to dig a little further and find out where more improvements can be made. At Cenex NL, we provide expertise on zero emission

We are very proud to be part of a consortium of 13 partners from all over Europe and Turkey. The project partners bring along world-leading expertise on material science, automotive components manufacturing and End-of-Life (EoL) management. We are eager to learn and contribute to this three-year project. What is LEVIS? LEVIS will support the transition to sustainable mobility by developing lightweight structural parts for EVs while integrating circular economy principles in the design phase. With the use of multi-material solutions based on fibre reinforced thermoplastics, LEVIS seeks to prove that the manufacturing of those components is not only sustainable but also feasible, cost-effective and scale-able. Creating a possible breakthrough in the circular design of mass-produced automotive applications. Cenex Nederland leads the implementation of eco-design strategies in the product design phase, as well as the evaluation of the environmental and economic performance of the lightweight EV parts.

Floris Teunissen has started at Cenex Nederland in January as our new assistant technical specialist. He will be working on the EU H2020 funded LEVIS R&D project where he applies his expertise to the integration of eco-design and circular economy principles for several electric vehicle components and perform the Life Cycle and Costing Assessments. Floris just finished a 2-year master Industrial Ecology with a focus on cost-benefit analysis and life cycle analysis. He dedicated his master thesis (scoring 8.5/10) to analysing the ‘influence of integrating life cycle assessments on the cost-benefits results of policies’. For his thesis, he used the Dutch climate agreement policies for stimulating electric vehicles as a case study.” You can read his thesis on the right or click the button to download it. Before his master, he explored his broad set of interests by studying in the field of Humanistics and Psychology while doing his bachelor’s in mechanical engineering. During his studies, he was involved in building an electric-powered racing car competing in the Formula Student international competition. After his bachelors, he worked for the fast-growing solar car manufacturer Lightyear as an HVAC engineer, where he analysed new energy-efficient technologies for the climate system of the solar vehicle. This work gave him the knowledge, experience, and passion to work in the sustainable mobility sector for Cenex NL. “I am very excited about this opportunity by Cenex NL to show what I am capable of. I feel like I have received a very warm welcome by the team and cannot wait for all the exciting projects that are up ahead!” – Floris Teunissen You can download Foris’ thesis via the download button or browse through it on your left, and it is also available at the TU Delft’s repository here.
