Greenpower Park to Establish UK as Center of Clean Energy, Electrification

Plans have been unveiled for the development of Greenpower Park, a new UK Center of Electrification and Clean Energy. The campus will be anchored by the West Midlands Gigafactory and will focus on fostering a clean electrified technology ecosystem. Greenpower Park will be located in Coventry and is the only site in the UK with approved plans for a large-scale battery production facility. The campus will also include space for battery research, industrialization, manufacturing, testing, recycling, and electrified logistics. The Greenpower Park campus is expected to drive advancements in zero-emission electric vehicles, public transport, aviation, and energy systems.

The Greenpower Park campus is targeting £2.5bn in inward investment and the creation of 6,000 highly skilled jobs. The project is being developed through a unique collaboration between academia, industry, government, and international partners. The campus has already secured endorsement from nine local universities and will be located within the West Midlands Investment Zone.
