The PINS project will validate the feasibility of a novel shore-power and recharging infrastructure that minimises the grid power availability and price barriers encountered in previous shore-power projects (eg SeaChange at Portsmouth). A central feature of the PINS solution is energy storage in the port or harbour operating under a multi-vector energy ma...

Nissan are leading a consortium to both build UK capability for electric vehicle and battery development, whilst innovations within the wider supply chain aim to enhance the cost and value proposition of vehicles for European customers. Vehicle batteries represent a significant investment and cost with substantial in-use and residual value, which the proj...

The electric revolution is gathering pace. As more vehicles become electrified, greater volumes of batteries and battery materials are required. These batteries will eventually reach end of life and must be repurposed or recycled. Currently, the UK lacks the infrastructure to recycle the batteries and recover their materials, so vehicle manufacturers are ...

Connected Energy(CE) has developed world leading E-STOR energy storage systems (utilising 2nd life EV batteries) and new business models to exploit this technology. The low cost of degradation (as well as capital cost) is a key differentiator and benefit of employing 2nd life EV batteries in stationary storage applications. This project seeks to develop p...

"Smartgrids have not been deployed at scale due to the lack of 1) open architecture IoT systems linking generation and demand 2) stable markets for storage and demand shifting and quantifiable service revenue streams 3) local leadership in the deployment of smart grids enabling demand assurance and multi-vector approaches (IET2018, ADE 2018).Smarthubs SLE...
