Every two hours Earth receives more solar energy than is required to power our entire global economy for a year. This project aims to engineer advanced single cell green algae for high-efficiency solar light capture, to power next-generation light-driven bio-manufacture. The significance is to advance industry-scale production of sustainable products using microalgae. This is economically, socially and environmentally beneficial. Project outcomes are designed to advance the technology from high-value bio-manufacture in microalgae, such as pharmaceuticals (e.g. biologicals), to mid-value products (e.g. fine chemicals) through to low-cost products, such as renewable fuels to help deliver key UN Sustainable Development Goals.

地球每两小时接收到的太阳能就超过了全球经济一年所需的能量。该项目旨在设计先进的单细胞绿藻，以实现高效太阳能光捕获，为下一代光驱动生物制造提供动力。其意义在于推进利用微藻生产可持续产品的工业规模生产。这对经济、社会和环境都是有利的。项目成果旨在推进从微藻高价值生物制造技术（例如药品（例如生物制品））到中等价值产品（例如精细化学品）再到低成本产品（例如可再生燃料）的技术，以帮助交付联合国关键可持续发展目标。
