Summary
Research Interests
- Technologies for mitigating carbon dioxide emissions, particularly from heavy industries (e.g. Iron and Steel, Cement, Chemicals etc.)
- Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) and air capture (capture of carbon dioxide from ambient air)
- UK and international climate change mitigation policy
- Energy efficiency: technologies, policies and barriers to uptake
- Incentivising behavioural change in order to reduce individual and corporate carbon footprints
