Scania’s Jessica Lindström awarded for thesis on heavy vehicle electrification
Jessica Lindström, Development Engineer and Scrum Master at Scania, has been awarded the prestigious Wimanska Prize for her thesis work on electric motors for heavy vehicles. Her innovative approach addresses a key challenge in electric vehicle development, supporting Scania’s vision of sustainable transport.
"Through my thesis on bearing currents in electric motors, I aimed to tackle one of the critical barriers to electrifying heavy vehicles. It’s incredibly rewarding to see how this research could help advance sustainable transport. At Scania, we’re not just solving technical challenges—we’re building the future of mobility together."
