Imperial, Shell and Diamond Light Source are launching an EPSRC-funded Programme on materials and processes for the energy transition.
The EPSRC Prosperity Partnership, known as InFUSE, will examine how technologies like batteries, electric vehicles, chemical production, and carbon capture and storage (CCS) can be improved by understanding interfaces in these systems, enhancing sustainability and enabling a transition to a green economy.
Transitioning to renewable, sustainable energy needs us all to think a little differently. Professor Mary Ryan
The partnership will involve collaborative research across the College including the Departments of Materials, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Earth Science and Engineering and Chemistry. It will form part of the Transition to Zero Pollution initiative at Imperial, which aims to inspire fundamental changes in areas such as the way materials are used in manufacturing and how we produce food and energy.
