Electric Machines Spoke to be created at 缅北禁地 Published on: 10 December 2015 缅北禁地 has been selected to host the Electric Machines 鈥楽poke鈥� for the UK鈥檚 Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC). The APC was established to position the UK as the global leader for the production and development of low carbon propulsion technology, forging partnerships between those who have good ideas and those who can bring them to market. It operates on a ‘Hub and Spoke’ model, with ‘Spokes’ as centres of excellence throughout the UK to realise the concept of a Propulsion Nation – a coordinated national resource of facilities and expertise.
