Siemens and the University of Manchester have launched a new research centre to develop technologies for the future of energy.
The new £20m centre, Siemens-University of Manchester Centre for Advanced Materials (SUMCAM), will focus on developing new materials and technologies to reduce the cost of energy production and increase the efficiency of energy networks.
The centre will be based at the University of Manchester’s Dalton Nuclear Institute and will be funded by Siemens and the university.
It will bring together experts from across the university, including materials scientists, chemists, engineers and computer scientists, to develop new materials and technologies for the energy sector.
The centre will focus on developing new materials and technologies for energy production and storage, as well as energy networks.
The research will be focused on areas such as advanced materials for energy storage, energy efficiency and smart grids, and the development of new materials for renewable energy production.
The centre will also explore the potential for using artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve energy networks and energy production.
The centre is expected to be operational by 2021 and will be open to collaborations with industry and other universities.
“The new centre will bring together the best minds from industry and academia to develop new materials and technologies to help reduce the cost of energy production and increase the efficiency of energy networks,” said Professor Colin Bailey, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Manchester.
“This is a great example of how universities and industry can work together to develop new solutions to global challenges.”
“Siemens is committed to helping the UK become a leader in the transition to a low-carbon future,” said Juergen Maier, CEO of Siemens UK.
“The new centre will help us to develop the technologies and materials needed to make this a reality.”
