The University of Warwick has signed a memorandum of understanding with The Tata Power Company Limited to jointly advance research and innovation in grid modernisation, fast charging, power storage, industrial decarbonisation, digital energy systems and advanced manufacturing. The collaboration will include executive education programmes, capability development, exchanges, technical workshops and joint case studies. The initiative aims to strengthen long term research capability and talent development aligned with Tata Power's strategic priorities. The agreement builds on expertise at Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG) and the School of Engineering and follows a renewed institutional focus on energy systems. Systems level thinking will be applied to support electrification, grid innovation and advanced power storage in pursuit of industrial decarbonisation. Existing WMG work with large scale energy users will inform route maps to investment and return. University leaders said the partnership will combine academic research and industry capability to advance sustainable energy solutions, while Tata Power underlined its commitment to transform India's energy landscape and to build a consumer centric green energy future anchored in decarbonisation, reliable and affordable power, and long term sustainability. The partners expect the collaboration to accelerate low carbon deployment and strengthen pathways for implementation. The agreement will support applied research, talent pipelines and industry aligned education. Established research programmes within WMG and the School of Engineering span semiconductors, power electronics, machines and drives, battery innovation, wind energy, artificial intelligence and industrial decarbonisation, and the parties plan to increase collaboration to translate research into industrial impact. The partners noted prior recognition of their joint work in 2025 and highlighted opportunities from the UK India free trade agreement to deepen research relationships. Tata Power reported a diversified portfolio of 16.3 gigawatt (GW), clean energy capacity of 7.5 gigawatt (GW) constituting 46 per cent of total capacity and a customer base of 13 million (mn), and the collaboration aims to develop scalable decarbonisation pathways.
