The Driving the Electric Revolution Industrialisation Centres will support industry across multiple sectors to help develop and scale-up new PEMD technologies and manufacturing processes.

The Driving the Electric Revolution Industrialisation Centres will do this by bringing together world-class technology and manufacturing research which will provide a catalyst for growth, from raw material through to system integration.

• Aim to reduce Co2 from the energy sector by 80% by 2050
• Electrification of vehicles will reduce fossil fuels in vehicles and industrial machinery

• PEMD technologies will provide ability to develop and deliver the industrial digital revolution
• As electric technology evolves, more opportunities for adoption will appear

The Driving the Electric Revolution Industrialisation Centres will encourage cross-sector collaboration and help drive industries to invest and collaborate with our network of excellence in academia and Research Technology Organisations. The Driving the Electric Revolution Industrialisation Centres will grow this capability and promote it both in the UK and overseas to help transform the UK into a PEMD exporter.

A total of £28m investment will be made in state-of-the-art equipment for industrial partners to accelerate their capability, capacity and competitiveness.

• The global marine sector is forecast to grow significantly within the next 10 years
• Innovation within this sector will help provide significant performance gains, reduce emissions and operating costs

• Micro mobility such as e-scooters, personal mobility devices and e-bikes are experiencing significant uptake and the UK is in prime position to play a key role in this global market

The Driving the Electric Revolution Industrialisation Centres aim is to make the UK globally recognised as the centre of excellence in PEMD manufacturing processes.

• As little as 3% of the global off-highway powertrain market is hybrid
• Innovation in this sector will provide significant improvements in performance gains and reduce emissions and operations costs

• Emissions from rail are required to reduce in order to meet targets such as net zero emissions by 2050 and no new diesels by 2040
• This will result in sustainable growth of the high speed rail network and the Driving Electric Revolution Industrialisation Centres will help accelerate and enable this growth
