Again, in Insider, yesterday:
‘The University of Strathclyde is part of a multi-million investment in a research hub to aid the development of electrified vehicles, planes, wind turbines, industrial machinery and consumer devices. The university’s Advanced Forming Research Centre (AFRC) and department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering will form the Scottish arm of The EPSRC Future Electrical Machines Manufacturing Hub. It will combine expertise in electrical machines and manufacturing for the first time, aiming to “put the UK [sic] at the forefront of an electrification revolution”. The hub will work with industry on addressing key manufacturing challenges, designing new electrical machines with improved performance for the aerospace, energy, automotive and premium consumer sectors.’
