Getting your Low Carbon Propulsion technology application ready
The Technology Developer Accelerator Programme (TDAP) pilot has been created by the Advanced Propulsion Centre UK (APC) to support companies (technology developers) with low carbon propulsion technology that can be applied to the automotive sector.
The technology will probably be at an early stage of development and the company may not be sure how to move forward with elements such as understanding the viability of the technology, business planning and validating the product or testing.
Practical support includes expert advice from specialists who will work alongside the company as it develops the technology ready for market as well as a grant to support the process.
The TDAP can also be used by companies with appropriate low carbon propulsion technology that is currently being used in other sectors (eg marine, aerospace, etc) that can be applied to the automotive sector but are unsure how to approach this sector.
Previous participants have used the support to develop products such as:
