About SEEL

Swedish Electric Transport Laboratory, SEEL, is a test bed for research and development in electromobility, owned and operated by Chalmers and RISE in a joint company. The purpose is to strengthen effective knowledge development and the conditions for cooperation in electrified transport, in Sweden and Europe. Actors in the automotive industry, the aerospace industry and the maritime sector, as well as other companies that develop technology in relevant areas, have a common platform through which to meet, and together benefit from the knowledge development and technology shifts now taking place. Researchers at colleges, universities and research institutes also have access to advanced research infrastructure in electromobility. The test bed will be operational in 2023.
