Carbon ThreeSixty secures multiple grants as a part of the UK Government’s £88 million funding to help boost zero emission vehicle technologies.
Niche Vehicle Network (NVN): £405k Production readiness:
As a part of the Niche Vehicle Network ( NVN) Production Readiness program, Carbon ThreeSixty will be part of a £405k project supporting us to bring innovative technologies from demonstration through to production readiness in a compressed timescale (9 months).
Our Hi-DEN Gen 2 project has just kicked off, where we’re developing the design, manufacturing, integration and testing of a conformable hydrogen storage solution to meet the growing demand of Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs) and help the UK reach its net zero targets by 2050. The Hi-DEN Gen2 system offers significant improvements in volumetric efficiency and can be configured to make best use of available package space.

Carbon ThreeSixty is involved in not one, but two large scale projects in the latest round of £59.9m funding from The APC (Advanced Propulsion Centre), announced in Sep 2024. The funding is focused on developing on-vehicle technology which boosts economic growth, green job creation, investment and reduces CO2 in both the manufacturing and use phase of vehicles.
APC25 SCALE-UP project: £6.3 Million:
Carbon ThreeSixty will be part of the £6.3m SCALE-UP project, awarded in the APC25 Collaborative R&D round. Led by JLR the project aims to develop a growing UK sustainable composites supply-chain, enabling high-volume application of lightweight and circular composite technologies for the automotive industry.

APC25 M-Light-EN project: £11.5 Million:
Carbon ThreeSixty will also be part of the £11.5m M-Light-EN project, led by Gordon Murray Automotive , in the same round of funding. The project will focus on developing a production-ready, ultra-lightweight, low CO2, monocoque architecture and solutions for a portfolio of class-leading future vehicles.

Carbon ThreeSixty’s R&D Director Andy Smith said “We’re delighted with the grant funding from the APC and Department for Business & Trade to support us in three exciting and innovative projects that will help Carbon ThreeSixty to continue its strong growth. To be selected in two out of eight funded APC projects from over forty applicants is a strong vote of confidence and we’re excited to get started on the technology.
