This briefing paper showcases a novel, codified framework that defines the objective of delivering a decarbonised power system, a means of tracking progress and an assessment of the UK’s progress to date.
This briefing paper explores the potential for producing green hydrogen from wind energy in the UK. It uses geospatial modelling to map the potential production cost of green hydrogen across the UK and its territorial waters. The key conclusions underscore the potential benefits of pairing offshore wind with hydrogen production.
This Briefing Paper considers the availability and development of materials for the energy sector, investigating both current availability and forecasted production of several critical materials and looking at the state of development of novel materials in the energy sector.
Major challenges exist for decarbonising heat in buildings through mass adoption of heat pumps. This Briefing Paper investigates the impacts and feasibility of leveraging early adopters by measuring in-situ heat pump installation outcomes and sharing these as case studies to enable peer-to-peer learning among consumers and installers.
This Briefing Paper investigates four key elements of smart meter data privacy: existing data protection regulations; the personal information embedded within smart meter data; consumer privacy concerns; and privacy-preserving techniques that could be incorporated alongside existing mechanisms to minimise or eliminate potential privacy infringements.
This white paper from Imperial College London’s Energy Futures Lab investigates the prospects for new nuclear power generation to provide a significant proportion of the UK generation, showing a rigorous, evidence based evaluation of realistic timescales, costings and required skillsets and collaborations.
Using modelling from the IDLES Programme at Imperial College London, this White Paper sets out how Britain's electricity system can be transformed to achieve net-zero greeenhouse gas emissions, detailing a range of cost-efficient portfolios of electricity generation and storage technologies.
This White Paper from Imperial College London’s Energy Futures Lab and the Institute for Molecular Science and Engineering investigates the safety and sustainability of lithium-ion batteries, exploring ways of reducing their impact on the environment and ensuring they do not pose a danger to the health of workers or users.
