Funded Projects

Project PIMMS will enable Electrified Automation to further develop its innovative process for manufacturing electric motors that are more cost-competitive, powerful and efficient than many of the products currently available in the marketplace.

Constellium aims to develop the lowest embodied CO₂ content aluminium alloys helping automakers reduce the carbon footprint of their products.

This project aims to develop a zero-emissions, hydrogen fuel cell powered Toyota Hilux pick-up truck. This will be the first application of a fully integrated Toyota hydrogen fuel cell system within this type of commercial vehicle in the UK.

Sigmatex has developed an innovative, high-volume, low-cost, carbon fibre textile and material handling process, which allows the application of affordable lightweight technologies for traditional components to transition to next generation lightweight solutions.

22 projects, comprising 35 UK-based companies and research organisations, received £2 million each through the APC’s Scale-up Readiness Validation (SuRV) competition. 

OX will optimise its electric OX truck, by developing energy dense, long-life, lower cost batteries, electronic drive units and a lightweight structure suitable for tough off-road conditions.

Norton will lead the ride towards electrification of two-wheels, developing a motorcycle that will simultaneously deliver race performance and touring range.

The winners from the second Automotive Transformation Fund Feasibility Study Competition (FS3) received a share of £9.4 million in public funding. Find out about each of the feasibility studies.

This collaborative project will establish three new UK manufacturing/technical centres capable of pilot volume manufacture and anchoring technologies for near-term hybridised ICE/BEV vehicles in the UK.

This funded project will focus on optimising the manufacturing process of a unique range of electric propulsion motors for electric vehicles and developing e-motor manufacturing capability at scale in the UK.
