Warwickshire-based Aeristech (
www.aeristech.co.uk), has developed a range of advanced, high-speed electric motors to power electric superchargers and hydrogen fuel cell air-side compressors.
The rapidly growing company, which employs over 40 staff, has a growing number of contracts with vehicle manufacturers and Tier One suppliers.
Aeristech’s unique technology allows higher performance from its range of smaller, more-efficient running motors, which helps its customers to achieve higher performance from their own products and they also play a significant role in the reduction of energy consumption and vehicle emissions.
Aeristech CEO Richard Wall said: “Over the past few years Aeristech has developed and commercialised what we believe to be the most advanced, oil-free, high-speed electric motor systems available and it is very gratifying to have this recognised with a Queen’s Award for Enterprise.
“I am very proud of our talented team at Leamington Spa who have been instrumental in this recognition.
“Our clients in the automotive industry, as with other sectors we are operating in, such as aviation, stationary power and industrials, are adopting our technology as part of their strategy to reduce emissions.
“We expect to become the technology of choice for fuel cell applications, given the significant energy reductions we can provide.”
The Queen’s Awards for Enterprise recognised Aeristech’s progress in delivering their most ambitious set of motor systems yet.
Established 54 years ago it is the most prestigious business award in the UK and celebrates the success of exciting and innovative businesses which are leading the way with pioneering products or services.
Aeristech was founded in 2006 to develop electrification of automotive supercharger systems and has since become a leading designer of advanced electric motor systems.
The company’s technology enables it to manufacture the world’s fastest accelerating and most power dense permanent magnet variable speed electric motors.
They are ideal for applications where efficiency, power density and speed are essential.
The company recently moved into a new dedicated headquarters in Leamington Spa, with laboratories, pilot production facilities and four fully instrumented test cells for motor and turbo-machine commissioning, validation and durability testing
