Established in 2008 Libralato is an innovation specialist in low carbon vehicle technologies; with expertise and new concepts for hybrid systems, validated through European Green Cars Initiative and Innovate UK projects. The Libralato rotary hybrid engine represents an historic breakthrough in automotive internal combustion engine design and enables a mass transition to plug-in hybrid electric vehicles which are cost competitive without government subsidy. The size and weight savings from the engine enable the whole plug-in hybrid system, including 5kWh batteries, to be fitted into any car engine bay, reducing fuel oil consumption by two thirds and CO2 emissions by 50%.

The Libralato rotary hybrid engine is potentially the most significant breakthrough in automotive internal combustion engine design since the Otto and Diesel cycles in the Victorian Age; solving the shortcomings of the Wankel engine from the 1950s. It shares the mechanical simplicity, power density and low cost of the Wankel engine but introduces a revolutionary 9-phase thermodynamic cycle for exceptionally high efficiency and low emissions, without the sealing and lubrication problems of the Wankel engine.

The Libralato rotary hybrid engine is an enabling technology for cost competitive plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (2 year ROI pay-back from the fuel savings, without subsidy).  Libralato aims to be a market leader for the urgent societal challenges of how to break the car’s ‘addiction to oil’ in a way that the average driver can afford and how to eliminate urban traffic pollution; by a mass transition to plug-in hybrid vehicles, which reduce fuel oil consumption by two thirds, fuel running costs by 60% and CO2 emissions by 50% (well-to-wheel).

The mobility sector over the next 5 to 20 years will be changing drastically. Changing behavior, new growth markets, the need for further greening of transport, infrastructure maintenance and financing, alternative energy, autonomous driving and new technologies including the digitalization of mobility are driving this change. The business world and politics get more and more aware of that.

M-Five is a ThinkTank providing systemic scientific & consultancy advice in these fields shaping the new world of mobility. Our expertise covers the linked fields of emerging new mobility services and technologies, economics, innovations and new business models. Our services are offered to public and private entities, the former receiving sound policy advice and the latter strategic guidance for their business in the mobility domain and its deepening linkages with energy and ICT domains. System dynamics modeling and systems analysis constitute our core methods to enable clients to improve their strategies. Sector know-how of the mobility industries and skills in innovation system analysis combined with methodological skills for quantitative and qualitative analyses are making the difference. Our combined expertise in mobility and economics are the key success factors of M-Five.
