UK Battery Industrialisation Centre (UKBIC) is the UK's national open-access facility designed to accelerate the scale-up of advanced battery technologies. It acts as a bridge between research and high-volume manufacturing, helping manufacturers and researchers validate processes, optimize performance, and reduce risk before committing to large-scale investment. The centre provides pilot and industrial-scale production lines, enabling customers to trial new materials and processes under real-world conditions. Based in Coventry in the West Midlands, it serves manufacturers and researchers seeking to validate processes and de-risk large-scale battery manufacturing investments. It is part of the Battery Innovation Programme under the UK Industrial Strategy, and in 2026 expanded its Coventry facilities with a new cell assembly line to advance its Flexible Pilot Line.
