Meet the Team

We stand at the forefront of the road to zero carbon

We specialise in developing new hybrid and electric powertrain technology for cleaner mobility of humans and goods.

We are committed to leading the next generation of clean mobility, which will make our streets, railways, farms, skies, seas and waterways, cleaner and greener. Recent projects have been funded by Innovate UK, ISCF, EPSRC and MarRI-UK.
