Our Energy Strategy is based on three principles: Reduce, Decarbonise, Smart.  

WMG’s battery technology experts in the Energy Innovation Centre developed a safe, robust and fast methodology for grading used automotive Lithium-ion batteries.

The University of Warwick’s WMG was awarded £5.7m by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) to form an electrifying Prosperity Partnership with Jaguar Land Rover (JLR). WMG and JLR have been accelerating their electrification journey, and JLR is on the road to achieving carbon net zero by 2039.

Steel has always been widely recycled; for every tonne of new steel produced, just over one third uses recycled materials. But with 80% of the UK’s steel being recycled abroad, we need to do more in the UK to reduce our reliance on new steel.

Over the last two years researchers from WMG, together with TDi Ltd, have been designing and building the new Coventry Very Light Rail (VLR) vehicle for Coventry City Council.

WMG is collaborating with Pashley Cycles and three other SME across the Midlands to develop an electrically assisted, last mile delivery trike.

WMG, as part of a consortium led by Conigital, is working on the Multi-Area Connected Automated Mobility (MACAM) project, which aims to establish a remote driving control hub that will oversee self-driving vehicles, placing Coventry at the driving force of transport innovation.

We're working to make it easy for everyone to reduce, reuse, and recycle, following our Environmental Policy to implement long-term waste management strategies and cut the overall waste generated by 1% per annum between 2021 and 2025.  

There are many trails to follow on campus, allowing you to explore the wonderful green spaces we have.
