Nanyang Technological University, Singapore's Energy Research Institute at NTU (ERI@N) will partner with Dyesol Limited, to investigate Dye Solar Cell (DSC) applications and technological advancements. Both institutions will collaborate on R&D work involving low-cost DSC technology – a nanotechnology that mimics photosynthesis to turn light into electricity under real world solar conditions.

BMW Group and Nanyang Technological University (NTU) launched the joint Future Mobility Research Lab, the first for BMW Group in Southeast Asia. This new research facility will study and develop key areas relating to future transportation, which includes advanced battery materials for electric vehicles, human-machine interfaces, and mobility patterns and concepts. A key focus will see how research outcomes can benefit the Asian market based on the needs of the region. NTU now joins seven other prestigious universities such as the Technical University of Munich (TUM), Georgia Institute of Technology and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as partners to the BMW Group in setting up joint labs. Under the ambit of advanced battery materials and human-machine interfaces, the BMW Group-NTU collaboration aims to find solutions to key transport requirements in the most sustainable way possible, especially in the area of electric vehicles, where battery safety, efficiency and being environmentally-friendly is of utmost importance. The study of mobility patterns and concepts will be focused on consumer behaviour in new mobility offerings for mega-cities, namely for multi-modal transportation and car sharing. One such area is the development of advanced routing algorithms so as to make the daily commute more comfortable.
