The Energy Technologies Institute

The Energy Technologies Institute is a UK based company formed from global industries and the UK government. We bring together projects that create affordable, reliable, clean energy for heat, power and transport.
The ETI will demonstrate technologies, develop knowledge, skills and supply-chains, inform the development of regulation, standards and policy, and so accelerate the deployment of affordable, secure low-carbon energy systems from 2020 to 2050.

The ETI is unique:
There is an urgent need to accelerate the development and deployment of low-carbon technologies to meet the UK’s energy targets.

The ETI bridges the gulf between laboratory proven technologies and full scale commercially tested systems. We work with the best, worldwide, to take the most challenging large-scale energy projects to full system demonstration, so de-risking their future development.
The ETI is an innovative and unique Limited Liability Partnership between international industrial companies with a strong focus on energy, and the UK government. We work together, sharing our expertise and resources to speed up the development and demonstration of energy technologies and shorten the lead times to market. 
We aim to overcome major barriers to the deployment of low-carbon energy developing a focused portfolio of projects in areas such as Wind, Marine, Distributed Energy, and Transport. Due to the high potential impact of Carbon Capture and Storage technologies, they have also been added to our portfolio.
