Battery Safety and Standards. Battery powered systems are a key element of a low emissions future. With battery capability increasing, it’s vital that we gain a deep understanding of battery safety at cell, module, pack and system level so that systems can be rolled out at scale. This is already a topic of extensive industrial and academic research in the electric vehicle sector and we wish to impart this knowledge to the aerospace sector. With the support of partners, WMG has developed this Battery Safety seminar to disseminate learning and bring insights from expert researchers, thought leaders and practitioners in the field.

Free places for sixth-form students

We are pleased to offer free places for sixth formers at the University of Warwick student Engineering Society conferences. Year 12 or 13 students interested in engineering or science careers will learn about cutting-edge research, areas of development in industry and paths to engineering careers.

This conference will focus on the future of travel and transportation and the companies shaping this future. The conference will have three main elements, beginning with talks from leading industry experts to highlight the cutting-edge research and developments currently taking place in the field. The talks will be followed by a networking lunch where attendees will have the opportunity to talk in a more personal way with companies and speakers and allow a break for an interactive demonstration of new technology changing our current perceptions of transportation. The conference will conclude with a chaired panel discussion with a mixture of prepared and audience questions.

Schools are free to leave at any convenient point during a conference.

WMG would like to invite industry leaders and research representatives to an exciting showcase of Very Light Rail technology and projects in the UK.

Our ministerial keynote speaker will set the scene of the urgent need for innovative, low emission solutions to meet the UK’s current and future transport needs. Our industry speakers will present on current projects and their potential to revolutionise transport infrastructure in the Midlands and beyond, as well as the potential for private investment in the rapidly growing sustainable transport sector.

This workshop will develop the basic knowledge of the key sensors of intelligent vehicles, their working principles, strengths and weaknesses, simulation, emulation and testing, incorporating ADAS/automated vehicles as the context.

The masterclass will include sessions delivered by guest industry speakers.

Uniting Industries and Unveiling Applications across the Energy, Transportation & Industrial Sectors

As the energy storage market has evolved, the UK’s energy grid has become smarter and new technology has continued to emerge. Yet, regulatory issues and market reshaping continues to cause uncertainty for many. But uncertainty leads to innovation.

Businesses must be ready to adopt new ways of thinking in both upstream and downstream energy storage. From the latest science in battery creation to the latest developments in EV manufacturing, the market is changing, and you need to stay one step ahead. Whether your interest is in automotive developments, cross-sector collocation with local governments or innovation in domestic storage, you can find what you are looking for at Battery & Energy Storage UK 2019.

We are on the cusp of a fundamental change in the way that we live our lives. The digital revolution is enabling us to rethink the way in which we approach economic growth in a more sustainable way. This is challenging many of our current paradigms. We are shifting from buying products to services. To share rather than to own. To design for durability and the circular economy rather than obsolescence. These trends are driving a revolution in the way that we view mobility. It is creating a vision of mobility that is Autonomous, Connected, Electrified and Shared (ACES). This session explores the ways in which we develop the supporting business models and supply chains to create the ‘ACES’ world.
