PNDC’s transport decarbonisation & RTDS capabilities
Advanced Net Zero Innovation Centre (ANZIC)
In addition to Wardpark, PNDC’s capabilities extend to the Advanced Net Zero Innovation Centre (ANZIC). ANZIC complements Wardpark with megawatt-scale infrastructure, including high-capacity power supplies, dynamometers, and dedicated outdoor test environments—supporting validation of electric propulsion systems, grid-connected technologies, and integrated energy solutions.
Together, these facilities enable accelerated system testing, hardware- and power-hardware-in-the-loop studies, and full-scale demonstrations—reducing investment risk, resolving interoperability and compatibility challenges, and shortening time-to-market for net zero technologies.
