The Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC), in partnership with the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills
(BIS) and Innovate UK is investing up to £100m in collaborative research and development funding to support the development of low carbon, low emission automotive propulsion technologies.

If you are a business working in this area, the APC is looking for projects to demonstrate technologies that:

• deliver significant reductions in vehicle CO2 or other emissions compared to current best-in-class technologies
• align with Automotive Council Technology Group roadmaps with respect to advanced propulsion solutions
• develop the UK’s supply chain in the field of low carbon vehicle propulsion technology

Projects must be collaborative and business-led and include both a vehicle manufacturer (or a tier 1 supplier) and an SME partner.
