A new collaboration between academics and industry that will set the direction of development and research of Energy Storage technologies, has been unveiled by the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC).
The SUPERGEN Energy Storage Hub wants to draw experts together from seven universities and 14 industrial and governmental partners. They will address the technical and scientific challenges facing the wide variety of energy storage techniques.
Led by Professor Peter Bruce FRS, based at the University of Oxford, the Hub will develop a shared vision for energy storage in the UK by developing the first integrated national roadmap for energy storage by engaging with the wider community.
The Hub will work with its industrial partners to accelerate the pull through of research to scale-up, prototyping, and commercialisation.
