  • Our work
        • Our work

          Managing energy demand will help us achieve our goal to become a net-zero society.

          Our work addresses a broad range of issues to transform the energy demand sector.

Covid-19 energy use

Heating and comfort

We are looking at the impact Covid has had on domestic heating behaviour and energy use during lockdown to provide a unique insight into the radical change in heating practices that can occur.

Commuting and business travel

We are looking at how remote working altered commuting and business travel patterns during the pandemic and whether these changes are likely to continue.

Space, time and infrastructure

We are advancing our modelling work in heating decarbonisation and transport decarbonisation to assess how we can reduce the cost of network infrastructure needed for net-zero, given future energy demand scenarios from the post-Covid recovery.

Local Green New Deals

We are looking at local responses to climate concerns, and in particular how these are being integrated with local responses to the economic and social problems arising from the pandemic.
