DENSO announced it has opened an Electrification Innovation Center at its plant in Anjo, Aichi, Japan.
The move supports the company’s aggressive development and production of electrified automotive products, systems, and technologies.
electric vehicles
DENSO has long developed and produced key products for electric vehicles, including inverters and motor generators used in hybrid vehicles and battery packs in mild hybrids, also known as stop-start technology.
As part of its efforts to develop an environment conducive to the development of electrification systems, DENSO has been opening the Hirose Plant and expanding its overseas bases.
Electrification Innovation Center
These spaces will enable the DENSO teams within them to swiftly transform new technology ideas
The Electrification Innovation Center features a development building, which will house teams focused on developing advanced production technologies and testing new vehicle systems; a durability building for reliability testing; an outdoor track for testing newly developed products; and a production plant for quickly ramping up a mass production line.
Together, these spaces will enable the DENSO teams within them to swiftly transform new technology ideas into ambitious prototypes and then reliable customer offerings, manufactured at scale.
energy conservation technologies
Further, at the newly constructed plant, DENSO will also innovate energy conservation technologies, to achieve zero CO2 emissions within the future plant.
DENSO will use the Anjo and Hirose Plants to establish safe, efficient, and sustainable manufacturing processes for electrification-related components. DENSO will soon roll out the superior production lines established at the facilities across its manufacturing companies and affiliates worldwide.
