EPSRC Engineering Net Zero Week:
Perspectives on a net-zero energy system: linking data analysis, system modelling, technologies and demand modelling
Scheduled as part of the EPSRC’s Engineering Net Zero Week, this whole energy systems-themed panel discussion will pull in findings from strands of both supply and demand-side research in the Integrated Development of Low-carbon Energy Systems (IDLES) programme. The discussion between Co-Investigators in this 5-year EPSRC programme (2018-2023) will be wide reaching, including:
- a reflective element that disentangles the complex interplay of policies and events that drove decarbonisation of the electricity system over the past decade,
- a commentary on what combinations of electricity generation and storage technologies could be implemented to continue the electricity system transformation to net-zero emissions,
- and a perspective on the potential for a demand side driven transition.
Short insights from the Co-Is will open the session, followed by a panel discussion that draws in questions from the audience.
Speakers:
- Chair: Dr Aruna Sivakumar, Reader in Consumer Demand Modelling and Urban Systems
- Professor Richard Green, Professor of Sustainable Energy Business
- Dr Mirabelle Muuls, Assistant Professor in Economics
- Dr Marko Aunedi, Research Fellow in Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering
- Dr Marco Pantaleo, Research Fellow in Department of Chemical Engineering
