The Science and Enterprise Park offers an outstanding location for energy technology organisations as part of an established innovation cluster with access to leading-edge research and top specification laboratories. The Park's Charnwood Wing is a unique facility in the UK originally designed for gas research that features exceptionally high levels of engineering services for gas handling, extraction and ventilation.

The energy cluster at the Park has grown exponentially since the opening in 1995 of the British Gas Research Centre, now part of Germanischer Lloyd, the global engineering consultancy specialising in the oil and gas industries.

Located in the Charnwood Wing of the Science and Enterprise Park, Germanischer Lloyd Certification Services (GLCS) is the leading certifier of gas related consumer equipment in the UK, one of the top three in Europe with a strong international reputation in Asia Pacific. The acquisition of GLCS in 2010 by BSI further reinforces the Science and Enterprise Park's status as a national energy innovation centre.

The Park is also home to the national Energy Technologies Institute, a £1B public private partnership involving BP, Shell, E.ON, EDF, Caterpillar and Rolls Royce. It also houses the University's international research institutes, including the Centre for Renewable Energy and Sustainable Technologies that boasts the UK's largest photovoltaic laboratory.

Government-supported partnerships on site include CENEX, the Centre of Excellence for low carbon and fuel cell technologies and the £9M Transport Innovation Network (iNet) that brings together businesses, industry bodies and universities to boost innovation in the transport industry that employs around 38,000 people in the East Midlands region.

Intelligent Energy, the global clean power systems company that originated from Loughborough University research relocated to the Park in 2010. The company now employs 150 people worldwide, with bases in the US, Japan and India as well as its global headquarters which is next to the University's Hydrogen Refuelling Station, Electrolyser, fuel cell and power train laboratories. Intelligent Energy launched the Burgman Fuel Cell Scooter in partnership with Suzuki in 2010 and is working with Lotus Engineering, LTI Vehicles and TRW Conekt to introduce fuel cell hybrid Black Cabs to London in time for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
