Tata Power and University of Warwick Forge Alliance to Drive Energy Systems Innovation

University of Warwick has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Tata Power to collaborate on advancing sustainable energy technologies. The partnership will focus on grid modernisation, fast-charging solutions, energy storage, industrial decarbonisation, digital energy systems, optimisation, and advanced manufacturing.

The collaboration will also extend beyond research to include executive education programmes, skill development initiatives, academic exchanges, technical workshops, and joint case studies. The initiative builds on the long-standing expertise of Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG) and the University’s School of Engineering, both of which have strong capabilities in electrification and sustainable systems.

The University has announced a renewed emphasis on integrated energy systems, bringing together research spanning semiconductors, power electronics, machines and drives (PEMD), and full-scale energy networks. By strengthening coordination across these domains, the institution aims to support industry partners in accelerating the shift from fossil fuels to electrified and low-carbon solutions.

Leadership from both organisations highlighted that the agreement aligns academic research excellence with industry experience to enable scalable, practical decarbonisation pathways. The partnership is expected to contribute to innovation in renewable integration, battery technologies, circular materials, artificial intelligence-driven system modelling, and industrial sustainability.

With the UK–India trade environment evolving and global energy transitions gaining pace, the collaboration seeks to create long-term impact through research-led innovation, industrial application, and knowledge exchange in the clean energy sector.
