Thesis Background
Electrification of road transport is a key element in delivering the Green Deal, for a carbon neutral Europe and ultimately a carbon neutral world. Using hydrogen as a carrier of green electricity to power electric trucks in long-haul operations is one important part of the puzzle, and a complement to battery electric vehicles and other renewable fuels.

At Volvo's Powertrain Strategic Development, we shape technology strategies and inform business decisions for new powertrain solutions. We probe emerging powertrain tech, legal shifts, and future societal needs to prepare a powertrain roadmap. In addition, we also develop technology solutions, to support the transition from concept to production. In this context, the analysis of logged vehicle data, both during the development phase and from in-production vehicles, stands as a cornerstone of our data-driven approach, offering insights into vehicle performance, user behavior, and potential areas for innovation.

A potential shift in data analytics from traditional coding to employing Generative AI, where one simply poses a prompt to articulate desired outcomes, would be a monumental leap forward. Embracing Generative AI not only streamlines processes but also democratizes data analysis, making it more accessible to non-technical users. This paradigm shift underscores the transformative power of Generative AI, fostering a more intuitive, efficient, and dynamic approach to extracting insights from vast datasets.

Problem motivating the project
The evolution of modern commercial vehicles presents both opportunities and challenges. The sheer volume of data generated by the ECUs offers profound insights into vehicle performance and potential areas for enhancement. However, the intricacy of data analysis, as per current industry standards, has become a considerable bottleneck. This limitation restricts the broader team from fully leveraging these insights.

With this project, our ambition goes beyond merely simplifying data analytics. We're looking to pioneer a new era in data interpretation by utilizing the capabilities of Generative AI. Through an intuitive interaction with a Generative AI prompt, we envision a future where every team member, be it engineers or managers, can seamlessly access and understand the wealth of data our vehicles generate. By making data analytics universally accessible, we aim to cultivate a collaborative decision-making environment, thereby accelerating innovation and ensuring our commercial vehicles remain at the forefront of the industry.

Objective and Deliverables
