UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC)

We are exploring how industry can dramatically reduce its greenhouse gases emissions by 2050, so helping the UK to meet its net-zero target.

Work and study with us

We're building a collaborative community so we welcome doctoral students to research with us, and researchers and industry to work with us.


About us

We are bringing together research expertise in sustainable energy systems to develop the ability to tackle energy system problems more comprehensively. Our interdisciplinary team will create novel whole-system solutions to large-scale and complex energy challenges.
