Projects

2020 Study Lead participant

EXCALIBUR - Example of Coherent Amplified Light for In-Borehole Microseismic Recording

1 Nov 2020 to 30 Apr 2022

Awarded
£275,750
Total cost £393,929

With the global drive to increase the proportion of energy generation through renewable sources, geothermal energy has attracted recent attention for its ability to produce both heat and electrical energy without a dependence on environmental factors such as wind or solar output. A geothermal power station extracts heat deep from within the Earth's crust ...

2019 Collaborative R&D

TEGMATIC – ThermoElectric Generator Magnesium-based mATerials for application in Internet Connected devices.

1 Nov 2019 to 31 Jul 2021

Awarded
£14,842
Total cost £24,736

Thermoelectric materials are capable of converting waste heat into electricity. It is forecast that there will be ~20bn connected devices by 2020\. Postulating 50% are battery powered, with 1-year battery lifetime, this would create demand for an additional 5bn batteries/year. Thereby, the use of thermoelectric generators for powering IoT devices is becom...

2017 Collaborative R&D Lead participant

New Passive All Optical Seismic Survey System

1 May 2017 to 30 Apr 2019

Awarded
£220,745
Total cost £367,909

Seismic exploration requirements are constantly pushing the boundaries of measurement capability: very high temperatures and pressures are directly related to the depth of a survey. Electronic systems for producing surveys are inadequate in many deeper boreholes because the electronics are pushed beyond the limits of their capability. An equivalent passiv...
