Integrated Development of Low-Carbon Energy Systems: A Whole-System Paradigm for Creating a National Strategy
Together with 14 researchers across Imperial College, we have successfully acquired funding for the EPSRC programme grant Integrated Development of Low-Carbon Energy Systems (IDLES): A Whole-System Paradigm for Creating a National Strategy! The project, led by Prof. Tim Green (Energy Futures Lab), is a multi-disciplinary programme of analytical work that spans critical areas of whole energy… Read more »
