This March, the industry will gather at the Cutty Sark in Greenwich, London, for the inaugural Engineering Matters Awards. Over two weeks of episodes, we’ll be introducing all of the shortlisted entries.

The Awards will demonstrate why engineering matters. We’ll be sharing some exciting innovations. And we will be looking at a range of ways engineers and those in related fields can have a wider impact on the world. 

This episode is the last of three focussing on shortlisted entries in the Innovation category. We’ll find out how a new way of monitoring battery health could reduce fire risks and make electric vehicles more sustainable. We’ll discover how flywheels are helping smooth delivery of power from wind turbines. We’ll learn how test-based machine learning is helping speed up vehicle development. And we’ll explore how physicists, biologists, and design engineers may one day be able to access particle accelerators, at their local university.
