ETI ran from 2007 to 2019. It was a public-private partnership between global energy and engineering companies and the UK Government, which worked hard to act as a conduit between academia, industry and the government to accelerate the development of low carbon technologies. ETI brought together engineering projects that develop affordable, secure and sustainable technologies to help the UK address its long term emissions reduction targets, as well as delivering nearer term benefits.
