CLT becomes the first UK incubator to join EPRI’s global innovation network

Carbon Limiting Technologies (CLT), the UK business consultancy that specialises in the low carbon/ sustainable technology sector and the main delivery partner for incubation support services to the Department for Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy’s Energy Entrepreneurs Fund, has entered a collaboration agreement with America’s Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) to support its work in the UK and North America.

Through the CLT/EPRI collaboration agreement, CLT becomes the first-ever British consultancy to join EPRI’s Incubatenergy network, a consortium of clean energy focused incubators across the USA and Canada.

British early stage low carbon technology companies, in particular those companies who have received support from BEIS’s Energy Entrepreneurs Fund, will benefit from CLT’s partnership with EPRI and its Incubatenergy network.

Beverley Gower-Jones, Founder & Chief Executive of CLT said: “We will coordinate our work with EPRI in order to leverage our collective knowledge of the low carbon energy space, promote greater transparency in scientific research and development and support our British network of companies to forge commercial and technology partnerships within North America.”

“CLT, EPRI and its Incubatenergy network share a common goal to accelerate the commercialisation of the very best low-carbon technologies that are being developed on both sides of the Atlantic and which deliver sustainable environmental, social and economic benefits to the UK, the USA and around the world.” Beverley Gower-Jones and members of the CLT team will attend the EPRI/Incubatenergy “Electrification Summer Conference”, taking place in Los Angeles in August.

Beth Hartman, Project Manager at EPRI/ Incubatenergy said: “For over three years, the Incubatenergy Network has been growing with leadership from EPRI, the U.S. Department of Energy and the National Renewable Energy Lab, and we are delighted to welcome on board CLT – the network’s first UK member. The UK is doing so much in the low carbon space, and CLT’s knowledge and experience will be invaluable to our work in the USA and Canada.”
