            Traction Motors

            The scope of the Traction Motor Section comprises all alternating-current and direct-current motors and associated control technologies specifically designed or utilized for the propulsion of vehicles. These motors can either be integrated with drive systems or operate independently from them. 

            The types of traction motors include, but are not limited to:

            • DC Series Motor
            • AC Series Motor
            • Linear Induction Motors

            Specifically included in the scope are:

            • Motor controllers
            • Regenerative braking systems
            • Thermal management systems
            • Power management systems

            Future Work

            • Developing a consistent traction motors definitions list (i.e., average life cycle temperature, cooling systems)
            • Developing a standard around the critical components of a traction motor and/or installation techniques of traction motors
            • Developing standards based on traction motor application (i.e., integrated with drive systems versus operating independently)
            • Developing performance characteristics of ancillary components (laminates, magnet wire, insulating materials) associated with high powered traction motors.
            • Developing traction motor standards for light, medium, and heavy-duty vehicles
            • Developing model regulatory template for traction motors (i.e., focus on critical minerals)
            • Advocating for broader EV adoption (working more closely with automakers or their associations)
            • Collaborating more closely with the US DOE Vehicle Technologies Office
