The purpose of the Energy Research Accelerator (ERA) is to work with UK government, industry and the higher education sector to undertake innovative research, develop the next generation of energy leaders, and demonstrate low carbon technologies that help shape the future of the UK’s energy landscape. Three of our member universities, Aston, Birmingham and Warwick, are part of the ERA collaboration. A new report produced by ERA lays out the capability that exists within the ERA collaboration to provide an understanding of the research strengths and capability within the consortium. It is framed in terms of the thematic areas of Energy Transformation, Energy Storage, End User Energy Demand and Energy Integration. It also sets out the underpinning skills, education and training developments.
