The Clean Propulsion Technologies (CPT) project, established in 2021, brought together 15 research partners and original equipment manufacturers. goal was to create a common vision sustainable business solutions so that the worldwide technological leadership of Finnish powertrain industry is secured. With EUR 15.5 M budget, CPT early-stage innovative concepts towards technology readiness level (TRL) 6. project’s particular significance its unique cross-coupling marine off-road sectors, which have similar emission reduction targets but do not compete for customers. project yielded 21 solutions, from accelerated model-based design methodologies progress combustion aftertreatment control hybrid energy management solutions. These were encapsulated four ground-breaking demonstrations, including next-generation engine working low-temperature, reactivity-controlled compression ignition (RCCI) mode hydrogen engine. An advanced close-coupled selective catalyst (SCR) system wheel-platform with digital hydraulics also demonstrated. University Vaasa led consortium responsible coordinated rapid prototyping. This report examines Vaasa’s achievements during terms 26 milestones, 13 deliverables, 32 papers. It focuses on other aspects, lessons learned managing large-scale academic–industry research.
