It offers a share of up to £1 billion of funding for capital and associated industrial research projects. This will be to support the industrialisation of a high value, electrified automotive supply at scale in the UK.

If your application is successful, you will be invited to progress to a full application for the ATF competition. (Forecasted date for next year's call).
