As part of the £1bn BEIS Net Zero Innovation Portfolio, SICE is managing the delivery of a number of innovation programmes focused on smart energy innovation. The SICE Energy Storage Innovation team is currently delivering on two flagship projects, “Longer Duration Energy Storage Innovation” and the “Storage at Scale” Projects. This event will showcase the work being carried out by projects funded under these Energy Storage Programmes.
