Controlled Power Technologies

Controlled Power Technologies' (CPT) new 48 volt electric supercharger spins up to 70,000 rpm within a third of a second, using 7kW of electrical power to deliver (an extra) six to ten times that power at the crankshaft.

Controlled Power Technologies (CPT), best known for its VTES electric supercharger, has announced it is working in the area of exhaust gas energy recovery and estimates its new system will be ready for market in five years time.

A new gasoline engine using CPT's electrically driven supercharger has demonstrated CO2 levels similar to that of an equivalent diesel engine.

Now here’s an idea that could catch on. Controlled Power Technologies has come up with a clever technical solution for the problem of ‘downsizing’ engines without compromising driveability and performance – the electrical supercharger.
