In February, Göschel indicated where the journey should go In 2011 at the competence meeting for electromobility of the Central Association of Electrical Engineering and Electronics Industry ZVEI: 'We have to make a technological leap in battery cell development in Germany.' It is not enough to simply set up battery production facilities in Germany and only follow global competition on the development side. New storage concepts would have to be dared and a pioneering role sought.
Göschel, who is considered one of the pioneers of the digital revolution in automotive engineering, also wants to promote the integration of software into automotive development. OEMs and suppliers are not prepared for embedded software, criticizes Göschel, who misses a corresponding business model in the automotive industry.
