In 2019 we co-founded and supplied chairman for the automotive company "Brudeli Green Mobility AS" together with Geir Brudeli and Kai Rune Vestersager. Geir has been a senior engineer and innovator in the Kongsberg automotive cluster for decades and has successfully sold patents to companies like Yamaha in the past.
The business idea is based on the observation that the path towards electrification for heavy duty long-haul vehicles will include plug-in hybrids. For a very long time, this will offset large amounts of carbon with a very favorable financial model for the customers. It also has major synergies with the end goal of those that believe in full electrification while at the same time being open to a more diversified approach as hybridization can augment many different types of engines and drivetrains.
The Brudeli contribution is several patents that contribute to a hybrid transmission module.
