Abstract
During the transition from conventional towards purely electrical, sustainable mobility, transitional technologies play a major part in the task of increasing adaption rates and decreasing range anxiety. Developing new concepts to meet this challenge requires adaptive test benches, which can easily be modified e.g. when progressing from one stage of development to the next, but also meet certain sustainability demands themselves. The system architecture presented in this paper is built around a service-oriented software layer, connecting a modular hardware layer for direct access to sensors and actuators to an extensible set of client tools. Providing flexibility, serviceability and ease of use, while maintaining a high level of reusability for its constituent components and providing features to reduce the required overall run time of the test benches, it can effectively decrease the CO2 emissions of the test bench while increasing its sustainability and efficiency.
