Williams Grand Prix Engineering Limited

The Protected Anodes for Lithium Sulphur Batteries Project (PALIS) will project will develop an innovative protected lithium anode component for use in Li-S batteries. The technology will mitigate detrimental side reactions in the cells, delivering higher performance, high energy density and lower cost Li-S cells for use in smart grid energy storage appli...

Cars that drive themselves promise massive improvements in safety, much reduced congestion, and the potential to help reduce climate change emissions. The key barrier to public acceptance is lack of confidence in how they might respond to the real events that happen on real roads; cyclists, pedestrians, bad drivers. Dense cities are the most challenging s...

The project will look at optimising efficiency, fatigue life, and cost of multiple-flywheel energy storage systems for grid applications. Energy system operators/owners have a need for energy-storage in order to stabilise grids against fluctuating power demand and supply. This is particularly relevant when incorporating renewable energy sources into islan...

The project will demonstrate the use of sodium-ion technology in low cost batteries for applications in transport and the storage of renewable energy. If it is succesful, it will enable a faster adoption of electric vehicle and renewable technologies. The project is a collaboration between three partners namely Faradion Ltd., Williams Advanced Engineering...

The Evoque_e project will design and develop innovative hybrid and electric propulsion systems, integrated structures, power electronics, electric drives and energy optimisation. The project will deliver a technology platform which is scaleable, configurable and compatible. The collaboration of partners is led by Jaguar Land Rover, established large compa...
