25 Sep 2026

Ben Peters joined us in 2019 via STFC's graduate scheme. He is now the lead engineer on our ASPIRE project and demonstrator, currently experimenting with new ways of using e-ammonia technology to store renewable energy. With both an artistic and scientific background, Ben uses these skills in his day-to-day role to solve real-world challenges. Science and art aren’t separate. They’re constantly overlapping and building on each other.
