Professor David Grant – University of Nottingham
Head of Advanced Materials Research Group, Director of Beacon in Propulsion Futures

David Grant heads the Advanced Materials Research Group at The University of Nottingham and has wide ranging research interests in energy storage systems from alloy and intermetallic hydrides to complex light metal hydrides and multi-component systems for storing hydrogen and also using these materials as thermal stores; and in biomaterials such as surface modification, coatings, nano-composite structures, degradable materials, cell surface interactions.

He has worked on over 100 projects both fundamental and applied with industry translating IP through patents and collaborative projects and has spent a secondment with industry for two years.

Currently he is the Director of the University of Nottingham's Beacon in Propulsion Futures and Director of the University of Nottingham’s Energy Institute. The Hydrogen group at Nottingham has extensive facilities for characterising and testing new materials plus demonstrator facilities for prototype hydrogen storage systems.

NEXT GEN Marine HYDROGEN 2023: Workshop Objectives

With safety always front and centre, NEXT GEN Marine HYDROGEN highlights effective solutions for workboats, ferries, patrol craft, military vessels, SAR, wind farm support, super yachts and unmanned craft. With focus on sub 24m vessels, topics are also relevant for 25m to 100m vessels plus the ports and harbours they operate from. The workshop combines international marine energy expertise with dynamic Q&A sessions. End-users and industry come together to identify viable solutions and technology readiness levels. NEXT GEN Marine HYDROGEN focusses on viable Hydrogen technology that is available today or in the very near future. The unique knowledge gained from NEXT GEN workshops helps to shape real world decisions, from modifying in-service powertrains to shaping requirements for next generation vessels. Attendees include commercial, government and military organisations, boat builders, engine manufacturers, technology developers, engineers, naval architects, class societies and legislators.
