    About Energy Systems Catapult

    Company Overview
    Energy Systems Catapult is an independent research and technology organisation. The Catapult’s mission is to accelerate Net Zero energy innovation. Launched in 2015 by Innovate UK, the Catapult has built a team of more than 260 people, with a range of technical, engineering, consumer, commercial, incubation, digital, and policy expertise. The Catapult draws on sector-leading test facilities, modelling tools, and data collected from its back catalogue of more than 500 research projects. The Catapult uses that ‘whole energy’ system capability to support innovative companies - small and large – to test, trial and scale new products and services. Impact comes when those innovators attract new customers, new investment, and new grants so they can thrive in the future energy system.
