Automotive Green Technologies Lab (AutoGreenTech Lab) is specialized in Automotive Electronics, Vehicular Communication Systems, Sensors and Signal Processing, Power Electronics, and Embedded Systems dedicated for Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) Vehicles and Electric Vehicles (EVs). Other research activities are dedicated to analysis and modeling of energy storage devices (batteries and supercapacitors), design and development of Battery Management Systems and battery chargers used in Energy Storage Systems. AutoGreenTech Lab has a young research team, composed of 10 professors / senior researchers and 3 PhD students. The research team has rich experience in automotive electronics, power electronics, signal processing for automotive sensors and embedded programming, conducting of more than 10 national research and development projects.

Strong colaborations and partnerships are established with industrial companies in the automotive field (Renault Technologie Roumanie, NXP, Infineon, Continental, Bosch, Siemens Industry Software SRL, Areny Energie Alternativa SRL), and Romanian research institutes (INMA Bucharest).

The research results were diseminated by publication of more than 25 articles in international journals, 70 papers presented at international conferences and 15 books and book chapters.

The laboratory infrastructure is dedicated for automotive field: 2 vehicles with internal combustion engine (Renault Logan 2 2012, Dacia Logan 2 2019), testing platform for Electric Vehicles (65 kW asyncronous electric motor, 96V/650A motor controller, LiFePO4 96V/180Ah battery pack, BMS, 2 / 3.3 / 7 kW battery chargers, 1 kW DC-DC converter), 3 / 7 / 22 kW charging stations, automotive diagnosis tools, test and measurement equipments (oscilloscopes, portable multimeters, power supplies, spectrum analyzer, thermal camera, battery testers, regenerative power system), automotive parts and Electronic Control Units, 4 laptops and 2 desktop computers, software for development, simulation and design of electronic circuits / PCB.
