Tata Power Company and Imperial College London, a world-leading UK university, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to explore opportunities for collaboration in research, technology and knowledge exchange across critical areas of the energy transition. The collaboration will focus on areas including grid flexibility, energy storage, AI and ML applications in energy, and advanced energy systems. The partnership will seek to connect Tata Power’s experience of developing and operating energy infrastructure at scale with Imperial’s research expertise across digital technologies and decarbonization.
The partnership comes as India and the UK deepen cooperation on clean energy and climate action. Under the India–UK Vision 2035, the two countries have identified energy storage and grid transformation as areas for greater cooperation, alongside joint work on AI, renewables, energy storage, hydrogen and carbon capture. The Vision also highlights the Net Zero Innovation Partnership as a vehicle for supporting deep-tech solutions and new markets for climate innovation.
The partnership reflects a shared interest in translating research and innovation into practical applications. Tata Power brings extensive experience across power generation, transmission, distribution and renewable energy, while Imperial contributes research capabilities spanning energy systems, engineering, digital technologies, economics and decarbonisation.
Tata Power Company is India’s largest integrated power company. It is a pioneer credited with steering the energy sector on technology, process and platform.
