When CSA Catapult was set up in 2018, the first key market identified was vehicle electrification, with predicted significant growth in demand for power electronics, machines and drives (PEMD) to deliver electrification of the transport sector.
SiNO-OFH (Safe installation and operation of a fuel cell system and hybrid powertrain in offshore CTV) brings together the expertise of Auriga Energy, Deregallera, Efectis and CSA Catapult to define a high-efficiency clean power system for safe installation and operation in off-shore work boats.
This project brings together CSA Catapult, BT and Space Forge to develop high-frequency and energy-efficient radio frequency (RF) GaN (Gallium Nitride) power amplifiers for massive MIMO systems.
Project AURA (Agile Universal Radio Architecture) brings together a consortium to design a tightly integrated O-RU solution. There is an emphasis on flexibility to target different frequency bands and form factors, greater power efficiency, and with the goal to manufacture the product in the UK at competitive cost.
The SiNQ project (Silicon Nitride for Quantum Computing) aims to develop and establish a UK supply chain for integrated photonic components for trapped ion quantum computers.
POWERDRIVE (Novel POWER moDule aRchItecture for cost effectiVE PEMD manufacture) brings together Dycotec Materials and CSA Catapult. It will develop a 3D printing process to improve the performance, reliability and cost of power modules and packages for automotive applications.
This project brings together Carbon Forest Products and CSA Catapult to demonstrate the world’s first for use in automotive thermal management systems.
The FABB-HVDC (Future Aerospace power conversion Building Blocks for High Voltage DC electrical power systems) project is establishing a globally competitive, UK supply chain. The leading edge technology will support a more environmentally sustainable, more electric future for aviation.
The Sim4CAMSens (Simulation for Connected and Autonomous Vehicle Sensing) will build a UK supply chain to advance the modelling, simulation, testing and characterisation of perception systems and algorithms for autonomous vehicles.
UKTIN (UK Telecoms Innovation Network) is the innovation network for the UK telecoms sector. It brings together industry, academia, and government stakeholders. It catalyses telecoms R&D talent in investment, cooperation and commercialisation.
