Energy Systems
Case Study
What does the future hold for UK jobs in the energy sector?
The transition to Net Zero means there is a need to train over 1 million people in the coming 20-30 years. Similarly, urgent action is required to encourage a more diverse pool of entrants into the heating workforce, where women account for only 2% and those with ethnic minority backgrounds make up 5%.
High Value Manufacturing
Case Study
International partnership develops time and cost-saving methodology in nuclear manufacturing
Connected Places
Case Study
Leveraging UK expertise to address Net Zero challenges in Latin America
The quest for a green recovery from the pandemic and renewed Governmental commitments to tackle climate change, is fuelling the translation of Net Zero pledges, plans and ambitions into real world actions in cities globally. Connected Places Catapult is helping to address these challenges with several collaborations in Latin American cities.
Compound Semiconductor Applications
Case Study
Spearheading semiconductor research through a Taiwanese partnership
Confirming Taiwan as a key international partner for the UK’s semiconductor industry, the Compound Semiconductor Applications Catapult formed a long term partnership with the Industrial Technology Research Institute of Taiwan (ITRI) aimed at boosting bilateral collaboration.
Offshore Renewable Energy
Case Study
UK companies working with China to meet low carbon energy demand
The TUS -ORE Catapult Research Centre (TORC) is a leading renewable energy technology R&D centre enabling UK businesses to access what is predicted to become the world’s largest offshore wind market.
Energy Systems
Case Study
Tackling the lack of diversity in the energy sector
Energy Systems Catapult was established in 2015 and from the very beginning a core part of its mission has not only been to transform the energy system but to also challenge how things are done, including the lack of diversity.
Offshore Renewable Energy
Case Study
Creating a culture where every individual is valued
Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult prides itself on providing an inclusive workplace for all employees to feel safe and supported at work, no matter what their individual characteristics.
Offshore Renewable Energy
Case Study
Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult and Durham University reduce the duration and costs of wind turbine blade testing
Working in collaboration with Durham University, the Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult’s blade experts developed a bi-axial testing method to address the challenge of reducing the duration and costs of blade testing, while making it more representative of real-world operating conditions.
Connected Places
Case Study
Intelligent mobility solutions
With support from Connected Places Catapult, Ginger Town, a micro-mobility fleet operator, is accelerating its deployment of e-mobility solutions in UK towns and cities.
Offshore Renewable Energy
Case Study
A launch pad for innovators to get new solutions to market
The Launch Academy is Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult’s offshore wind technology accelerator programme for enhancing the UK’s supply chain, boosting UK content and supporting cost reduction through innovation.
Offshore Renewable Energy
Case Study
Advancing technology innovation for green energy
The Levenmouth Demonstration Turbine (LDT) in Fife provides a unique, world-leading facility, hosting some of the offshore renewable energy industry’s most exciting new technologies.
High Value Manufacturing
Case Study
Enabling battery technology for green heating
The High Value Manufacturing Catapult’s Centre at WMG supported Arriba Technologies Ltd to develop a solar-powered heat pump for large buildings including hospitals, factories and schools reliant on natural gas, set to slash carbon emissions.
Compound Semiconductor Applications
Case Study
End-to-end supply chain development for Automotive Power Electronics
The Compound Semiconductor Applications Catapult has rapidly established itself as a key resource in vehicle electrification, and new delivery partner to meet the Government’s Net Zero target by 2050.
Connected Places
Case Study
Supporting integrated transportation ecosystems
The Connected Places Catapult worked with Arrival to meet sustainability targets through the use of existing motorway infrastructure together with autonomous vehicles and new transport hubs, to provide more frequent services across the country.
