Wave 1
-
Series hybrid intelligent electric drive (SHIELD)SHIELD wanted to develop the world’s first single-speed series hybrid powertrain for front loaders used in the construction and mining industries, drastically reducing harmful emissions.
-
Sustainable, low-emission tyres for improved air qualityThis project wanted to develop a range of tyres aligned with the unique characteristics of Electric Vehicles (EVs) to deliver improved EV performance whilst reducing the environmental and air quality impact of tyre wear.
-
QUANT: Quantification of Utility of Atmospheric Network TechnologiesLow-cost air pollution sensors could play a vital role in improving air quality, but a deeper understanding of their performance is required to realise their full potential. This project will directly address this challenge through an assessment of low-cost sensors and sensor networks.
-
DREaM: Component-Specific Air pollutant Drivers of Disease Risk in Early to Midlife: a pathway approachHigh pollutant concentrations are linked to a range of long-term adverse health effects. DREaM will identify how the components of air pollution affect people’s vulnerability to cardiovascular disease, and the causal mechanisms behind this.
-
ANTICIPATE: Actively anticipating the unintended consequences on air quality of future public policiesUK public policies have significant consequences, but the full range of impacts are often not thoroughly considered at appraisal stage. ANTICIPATE improves awareness of these consequences outside the core areas of intended impact.
-
APEx: An Air Pollution Exposure model to integrate protection of vulnerable groups into the UK Clean Air ProgrammeAPEx places people at the centre of the problem of air pollution by creating an exposure model that more accurately reflects the air that people breathe as they interact with the city.
-
MAQS-Health (Multi-Model Air Quality System for Health Research)This project was formed to provide a high-resolution prediction capability to support personal exposure for health impacts. The system will comprise a coupled air quality modelling system spanning national to urban street scales and accounting for physical and chemical processes occurring at all relevant spatial and temporal scales.
-
Data integration model for exposure modelling (DIMEX-UK)The aim of DIMEX-UK is to develop a modelling framework to integrate ambient and indoor concentrations with human activity to estimate personal exposures to air pollution for use in future health impact analysis and other applications.
-
OSCA: Integrated Research Observation System for Clean AirThe OSCA project will provide new capability to predict future changes in the sources, emissions and atmospheric processes responsible for air pollution, providing robust evidence for air quality policies as well as data and infrastructure for the wider Clean Air Programme.
-
National Physical LaboratoryThe National Physical Laboratory (NPL) is one of the Public Sector Research Establishment partners in the Clean Air Programme. NPL is providing metrology support across both the UKRI and Met Office research activities through collaboration with project partners.
