Personal profile

Overview

I am a Research Fellow in the Heating and Cooling Research Group of the School of Engineering at LSBU. I joined LSBU in 2018 to undertake a PhD research project sponsored by Transport for London to investigate the potential to recover and reuse waste heat from the London Underground. Since completing my PhD in 2022, I have contributed to several engineering R&D projects related to heating and cooling, with focus on district-scale heat pump application for domestic heating, as well as on industrial and commercial refrigeration.

Research Interests

As a Research Fellow, I have supported several research projects related to the decarbonisation of existing heating and cooling/refrigeration systems, such as:
FAST DHC (Feasibility Assessment Tool for District Heating and Cooling): I am the project manager for the FAST DHC project, which aims to develop a free decision-support tool for assessing the techno-economic performance of 4th and 5th generation DHC systems, and comparing them to individual heating and cooling solutions. Funder: IEA.
LoT-NET (Low Temperature Heat Recovery and Distribution Network Technologies): I act as a researcher supporting LSBU's activities within the project, which relate mainly to investigating waste/recoverable heat opportunities in the UK. Funder: EPSRC.
TICR (Transport, Industrial and Commercial Refrigeration): I lead the energy modelling for TICR, which involves estimating current and projecting future energy consumption levels and emissions for refrigeration in different sectors. Funder: DESNZ.
GreenSCIES (Green Smart Community Integrated Energy Systems): I worked as a researcher on this project, supporting LSBU-led activities relating to reviewing climate neutrality commitments of UK local authorities and identifying areas suitable for smart local energy systems in the London Borough of Islington. Funder: InnovateUK.
I also support other academic projects within LSBU related to sustainable heating and cooling, such as the LSBU Energy Advice Centre (Funder: UPP Foundation) and the Net Zero Future Skills Bootcamp (Funder: GLA).
My research has led to several publications and many awards over the past few years, including the prestigious Ted Perry Award by the Institute of Refrigeration (IOR), a 1st place award at the 7th DHC+ International Awards by Euroheat and Power, as well as an award for Best Young Energy Efficiency Researcher at the World Sustainable Energy Days 2022. I am also actively promoting sustainable heating and cooling through my memberships of CIBSE and the IOR, as well as through platforms such as the IIR’s commission on heat pumps & energy recovery.
