A university has been handed a £10m gift – one of the largest donations in its 60-year history – to help research cleaner energy systems.
It has come from former University of Warwick student Tim Hartnoll and will be used to establish a new research centre focusing on new types of batteries.
Prof Stuart Croft, vice-chancellor and president at Warwick, said: “This extraordinary act of generosity represents a defining moment for Warwick and for the future of sustainable energy.”
He said the Hartnoll Centre for Experimental Fuel Technologies would bring leading experts together to develop a cleaner, more resilient future.
