NMI is launching its new “Electronics enabling the Low Carbon Economy” Innovation Network with a focus on priority applications areas. The network will align designers, developers and users of key technologies that have the potential to significantly impact carbon emissions in the UK and beyond. 
“Semiconductor enabled efficiency” is recognised a key enabler in achieving future CO2 emissions targets and this timely launch of this Innovation Network provides the electronics community with a focal point to understand both the technical and business challenges and a platform to build collaborative partnerships that will drive economic growth while delivering significant carbon savings.
