Facilities

The Center for Advanced Materials and Clean Energy Technologies

In January 2018, the Washington State Legislature allocated $20M to the University of Washington (UW) to establish a world-class center for advanced materials and clean energy technologies, or CAMCET. CAMCET will be housed in a new building, Site W27, located in the Portage Bay Crossing area on the west side of the Seattle campus. CAMCET will include the Washington Clean Energy Testbeds, founded and operated by the UW Clean Energy Institute (CEI).

Tenants in Site W27 will focus on clean energy science and technologies and other innovations for a sustainable future. The building will include space for UW research and education, as well as market-rate leasable spaces for UW mission-aligned partners.

Wexford Science + Technology will develop and manage the 11-story building totaling about 340,000 rentable square feet.
