New funding opportunities have been made available to facilitate projects working to advance sustainable propulsion technologies for electric vehicles.<\/h2>\n

The Faraday Battery Challenge<\/a>, which is part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), is searching for novel projects that are aiming to deliver breakthrough advancements in propulsion battery technologies for electric vehicles.<\/p>\n

Facilitating battery innovation in the UK<\/h3>\n

In order to support the development of technologies with the capacity to enter the automotive market within the next 10 years, the Faraday Battery Challenge Round 5 Innovation competition is set to invest up to \u00a325m.<\/p>\n

The competition has been set up to facilitate the progression of UK battery innovations from technological potential to commercial capability. As well as this, the competition aims to expand material and manufacturing supply chains for UK battery technologies.<\/p>\n

Through this competition, the Faraday Battery Challenge aims to assist the research and development of cutting-edge and sustainable battery technologies for the propulsion of electric vehicles. To qualify for funding, projects must:<\/p>\n
