During SPECIFIC’s 12 years of working with businesses, we have built a network of organisations from across Wales, the UK, and beyond. In this Q&A, our Business Development team talk about how this network has benefitted our collaborators.
With four PV systems installed at three different sites, Wernick Group approached SPECIFIC for support assessing the systems’ performance.
To help Sea Trust Wales operate their new building more efficiently, SPECIFIC worked with them to analyse their heat and electricity use.
SPECIFIC supported the development of Advanced Electric Machines’s new sustainable motor prototype through access to our coating expertise and facilities.
Last summer, with support from SPECIFIC, Solapak Development Ltd installed a solar electric generator at Kageyo Milk Collection Centre in Rwanda. One year on, Mark Spratt tells us what has been achieved.
Catnic is a Tata Steel Enterprise that specialise in manufacturing steel lintels. In an effort to reduce their energy consumption and carbon footprint at their manufacturing site, Catnic were considering installing photovoltaics (PV). They approached SPECIFIC to gain some insight into how much PV generation would be possible.
Thermoelectric generators can convert heat into electricity, potentially playing an important role in reducing industrial carbon emissions. In a new paper, our researchers have found a way to reduce manufacturing time of thermoelectric materials, achieving a record power output in the process.
