Funded Projects

This project aims to decarbonise heavy duty powertrains by developing a highly efficient e-machine for energy recovery.

The Hi-VIBES project will develop a high voltage integrated battery power-electronics system to control future Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) traction batteries.

CNHi have developed a new Gas Powered Tractor requiring engine adaptations, new fuelling system, new exhaust and after treatment technology and packaging of gas storage tanks to enable tractors to run on compressed natural gas.

This project aims to accelerate the development and market readiness of zero-emission powertrains and components to strengthen UK Tier 1 supply for a wide range of commercial vehicles and buses.

This project aims to develop hydrogen Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) technology, centred on an evaporatively cooled fuel cell system.

The Breathe collaboration significantly cut CO2 emissions for JLR’s current-generation petrol engines so everyone can breathe easier, while also creating and protecting UK jobs.

Through this project, BMW will transfer skills and development experience of engine systems to McLaren Automotive. It will establish the engineering function of BMW in the UK.

Working with world-class research and industry partners, the project - lead by Jaguar Land Rover - will deliver a benchmark, zero-emissions premium Fuel Cell SUV concept.

ViVID (Virtual Vehicle Integration and Development) is a collaborative research project to develop digital engineering tools for the next generation Transit van platform.

The winners from the second Automotive Transformation Fund Feasibility Study Competition FS2 received a share of £9.4 million in public funding.
