3. Proposed Approach
The BlueStor-ZE project will validate a novel waterborne energy storage system based on
organic flow battery technology with super-capacitor technology for peak power provision. It
will advance this capability from concept level through to system-level validation and
performance assessment (TRL5).
A complete test system will be built, operated and monitored to gather actual performance
data, including under dynamic loading conditions. Preliminary engineering and costing of
three use-cases will support the investment in commercial development.
The consortium is missing some expertise: inland waterway vessel builder, some target
users and suppliers of some system components.

5. HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-12 RIA
Stimulating Road Transport research and innovation dissemination and
implementation in Europe and around the World
Proposed Approach
Problem: Advance the knowledge on human-AI interaction in the
context of self-driving vehicle at different level of automation.
While significant progress has made in autonomous technology, the
interactions with humans remains a problem to be addressed more
effectively and efficiently, in particular, in partial autonomy Levels 2,3
and 4 when the driver can be requested to retake control over the
vehicle. It is essential to study how drivers would act when they are
subjected to an unstructured emergency transition of control.
Scope: Develop a better HMI system for autonomous vehicle able to
increase human trust in the system and improve the human-AI
symbiosis in turn taking and shift of control.
The system to be tested with different types of population.
Partners sought: Automated vehicle researchers or industrial
developer, end-users groups, transport research.
Experience
Track record: long standing national and international record in
obtaining funding. Research expertise and publications in the area of
AI, HCI, VR and simulations.
Big Names: Past projects with the Transport Research Laboratory
(TRL) in the UK
Organizational Capabilities - Academia
Skills: The IAI brings together researchers actively engaged in
the creation of new AI technologies across the disciplines.
In particular the Institute has a Transport Research group
(DIGITS), that focus on a wide range of intelligent transport and

15. Proposed Approach
• Combustion is a double-edged sword for today’s world; The dilemma cannot be fully resolved
until alternative sustainable energy sources can completely replace fossil fuels on a global scale.
• Both energy efficiency and the combustion products are determined by subtle combustion
chemistry at molecular level
• Key reaction intermediates such as hydroperoxyalkyl radicals (QOOH) remain elusive.
• We will develop a unique approach to snap-shot key reaction intermediates in combustion and
will gain molecular-level insights into combustion
• We seek academia and industry partners on civil and power engineering, kinetic modelling, etc.
to develop new accurate combustion models and to achieve cleaner and more energy-efficient
combustion in both engines (airlines and freight) and power plants.
