    Personal profile

    Overview

    I am a Professor of Building Performance and Policy. I study the links between technology, policy, and people in making the built environment fit for purpose and fit for the future. 

    Research Interests

    My research interests centre on the UK energy trilemma of delivering a low cost, low carbon, secure energy system. I am particularly interested in the field of low carbon heat and the intersection of technical and policy challenges in meeting the UK’s 2050 carbon targets.
    My research background considered domestic retrofit programs and policy implementation. From February 2017-18 I worked with the Department of Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) on secondment to the Energy Transformation Directorate. My role was supporting and developing technical research to inform policy design.
    I have worked on a wide range of research and demonstration projects in the areas of low carbon heating, retrofit, and policy.
