Description
|
The Energy Technologies Institute (ETI) is a public-private partnership between global industries – BP, Caterpillar, EDF, E.ON, Rolls-Royce and Shell – and the UK Government Public sector representation is through the administration of the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, with funding channelled through the Technology Strategy Board and the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council. The Department of Energy and Climate Change are observers on the Board.
The ETI is focused on accelerating the deployment of affordable, secure low-carbon energy systems for 2020 to 2050 by demonstrating technologies, developing knowledge, skills and supply-chains and informing the development of regulation, standards and policy.
We are not a grant giving body. Instead, we make targeted commercial investments in projects in offshore wind, marine, distributed energy, buildings, energy storage and distribution, carbon capture and storage, transport, smart systems and heat, and bio energy – underpinned by our world-class capability in energy system modelling.
The ETI develops and defines its projects on the basis that the particular low carbon technology (or technologies) has the potential to play a substantial role in the future UK energy system from 2020-2050.
We work with large multi-national companies, SMEs, universities, research organisations in the UK and abroad. Given the focus for developing technologies that will play a substantial role in the future UK energy system, tender documents (Requests for Proposals) are usually very specific about the types of technology to be developed and the specific outcomes required.
