AMRC Cymru is backed by a £20m investment from Welsh Government and is the first High Value Manufacturing (HVM) Catapult centre in Wales.

AMRC Cymru operates a 2,000 square metre open access research area with Airbus the first major tenant with a platform to develop their next generation wing technologies aligned to its ‘Wing of Tomorrow’ programme.

Situated in the Deeside Enterprise Zone the facility will focus on advanced manufacturing sectors including aerospace, automotive, nuclear and...

The Hydro-Thermal Carbonisation (HTC) rig, located at the CPL Industries production site at Immingham, North Lincs is a technology for converting high-moisture biomass into solid fuels using moderate temperatures and high pressures. The HTC process effectively mimics the long-term natural process of coal formation, with the process taking a matter of hours rather than millennia. The process is able to convert waste streams such as green / organic waste into value-added fuel products that can be...

QuantIC is the UK Quantum Technology Hub in Quantum Enhanced Imaging.  We bring together industry and academia in a collaborative project to revolutionise imaging across industrial, scientific and consumer markets.

Established in 2014, we are one of four Hubs that are part of the Government’s £1billion National Quantum Technology Programme set up to exploit the potential of quantum science and develop a range of emerging technologies.

QuantIC’s investigating team and their groups represent...

The Marine Energy Engineering Centre of Excellence (MEECE) is a multi-million-pound collaboration between ORE Catapult and Welsh universities, funded by the Welsh European Funding Office. Based at Pembroke Dock, the Centre will deliver research, development and demonstration activities to support innovation in the Welsh supply chain, accelerating the commercialisation of the wave, tidal and offshore wind sectors by reducing cost of energy.

The purpose of the MEECE collaboration is to...

Housed in Strathclyde’s Technology and Innovation Centre, the DPSL offers a number of state of the art research and validation platforms for high integrity resilient power and energy systems for energy and decarbonised transport applications. Underpinned by leading-edge hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) techniques, a wide array of experimental investigations are undertaken in this infrastructure by national, international and industrial research teams. The systems-level assessments of disruptive and...

Second life applications relate to the point when a battery has deteriorated such that it is no longer useful in a vehicle. At this point it can still be adapted for many other purposes including domestic properties. These new facilities at Warwick include a bespoke power system providing 500-kVA bidirectional power transfer capability between the mains and a DC micro grid within the facility at 750 V DC. The DC micro grid allows for power transfer between the various systems connected to it...

We are a leading independent technology innovation centre and a founding member of the UK Government’s High Value Manufacturing Catapult. Established in 2004, our teams tirelessly apply...

The Research Centre for Carbon Solutions (RCCS) at Heriot-Watt University, is an interdisciplinary world-leading engineering centre, inspiring and delivering innovation for the wider deployment of technologies needed to meet necessary carbon targets. The RCCS occupy over 350 m2, across ten separate and interlinked laboratories, with dedicated high-end analytical research instruments and many bespoke in-house designed systems and rigs for advanced research and process development dedicated to...

The Integrated Energy Storage, Testing and Verification (IESTV) facility at Leicester University enables the integrated testing of supercapacitors, battery storage and compressed air systems. This facility, with its associated control system, allows different energy vectors to be integrated together into an ‘energy store’. The aim of the facility is to investigate the operation and interaction between various energy storage systems integrated with energy networks through computer simulation and...

The National Archives (TNA) is the official archive of the UK government and for England and Wales, making available to the public a vast collection of historical records dating back over 1,000 years and including the UK Government Web Archive and legislation.gov.uk. Our goal is to be an archive for everyone, and we are taking an entrepreneurial, disruptive, and inclusive approach to reaching this aim. One important sector we serve is research, and as a UKRI Independent Research Organisation, we...
