UK scientists behind clean power AI breakthrough win £1m Government prize
- British scientists have won a £1 million Government prize for an AI breakthrough in developing materials for wind turbines and electric car batteries faster than ever before.
- Polaron, a project from Imperial College London, will use the funding to enhance its design tool for predicting material performance.
- Science Secretary Peter Kyle stated that the technology will help the UK meet its clean power targets, including reaching net zero by 2050 and cutting emissions by 81% by 2035.
- British scientists have developed an AI tool that accelerates material creation for wind turbines and electric car batteries, allowing years of work to be completed in days.

AI breakthrough in slashing materials development
Advanced materials are essential to modern life, from metal alloys reinforcing bridges and skyscrapers to batteries powering electric vehicles. Yet, developing them has traditionally been slow, costly and unpredictable. Polaron, a spin out from Imperial College London, speeds up the development of these materials from years to days – which could be game-changing for the government’s Plan for Change to get Britain building, deliver economic growt…
