Our Spoke Community has created a national network that brings together specialist academic, technological and commercial expertise to share best practice for the development of low emission propulsion technologies.
Each Spoke is hosted by a leading UK university, globally-recognised in its field with several named in the top 100 universities in the world.
Our communities currently include over 600 organisations, over 60 key academic institutions and a range of OEMs, SMEs and supply chain companies – and continues to grow week-by-week.
The core activities of the Spokes are to encourage and nurture cross-sector collaboration to build UK electric vehicle research and development programmes which support supply chains at all levels from materials to system integration.
The Spoke’s Electrified Supply Chain Portal was launched to change the way OEMs collaborate with suppliers on alternatively-fuelled vehicle research projects. The networking site is free to use and is dedicated to the low carbon vehicle industry to build the UK’s electrified supply chain.
Coordinated nearly £11m of government and industry investment
