Partnerships for Sustainable Integrated Motor Drives

Join us in advancing sustainable, high-performance electrification technologies.

Together, we’ll drive innovation in Integrated Motor Drives (IMDs), enabling smarter, more efficient industrial and power systems for a low-carbon future.

Industrial partnerships

We work closely with industry leaders to develop cutting-edge technologies that improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions.

Whether you are looking to pilot new solutions, invest in sustainable technologies, or integrate IMDs into your operations, we provide opportunities for collaborative innovation.

Academic partnerships

Our programme is built on strong academic partnerships with leading universities.

Collaborating with the University of Nottingham, University of Bristol, and Newcastle University, we aim to push the boundaries of integrated motor drive technologies.

Join us in advancing research and contributing to the global transition to sustainable energy.

PhD opportunities

We offer exciting PhD opportunities for students interested in tackling the biggest challenges in energy efficiency and electrification.

By joining our programme, you will contribute to groundbreaking research while working alongside industry experts and academic leaders.

  • Through-life efficiency: Field trials show up to 60% annual energy savings, equivalent to around 80 tonnes of CO₂ emission, from replacing a single motor with an integrated drive in the same footprint.
  • Lower manufacturing energy: Merging system functions into one unit cuts raw material use and production energy.
  • Reduced reliance on rare earths: New topologies minimise or eliminate scarce materials, easing environmental and political supply risks.
