Warsaw University of Technology/Plurimum Sp. z o.o.
Asistant Proffesor at Warsaw University of Technology.
Research area:
- Printed electronics paints and applications
Oru results are mostly on TRL6. We need commercial feedback to go further.
We ellaborate printing materials and proceses that allows manufactoring of electronic components via printing methods. We can print those elements on various sbstrates also flexible and non-flat.
We print for example light-sources, sensors and flexible conductive paths.
We are looking for industrial partners to collaborate in R&D projects.

Watertruck+
Watertruck (www.watertruck.eu) is an innovative concept for the transport of goods on small waterways (CEMT I-IV) which can unlock the economic potential of a region by using small, self-propelled or unpropelled barges.
The concept, combined with small or large, environmentally friendly pushers, allows for a maximal flexibility of operations whilst maintaining a maximal regional scope, linking the small inland waterways to the TEN-T core network and vice versa, according to the TEN-T corridor principle of the European Commission.
The Watertruck+ project, a TEN-T/CEF project, aims to do just that. The goal is to provide the market with the tools for the construction of a fleet of 500 vessels, rolling out the Watertruck concept across the various European regions.
As a first step, certain standards will be established in order to reduce production costs and improve the interoperability of the vessels, both in terms of sailing areas and in terms of cargo type. As a proof of concept, a small fleet of 28 barges and 3 pushers will be constructed and deployed in a large-scale trial phase, shipping some 1,6 million tonnes of cargo per year.
The results of the trial phase will be combined with a financial toolbox, to create a Master Plan which will contain business cases for theconstruction and financing of a large European fleet of Watertruck+ vessels.
