The Policy and Innovation Research Group is part of the Institute for Energy Systems (IES) which is one of the six research institutes within the School of Engineering at the University of Edinburgh. The University of Edinburgh is one of the largest and most successful universities in the UK with an international reputation as a centre of academic excellence. In the most recent UK wide Research Assessment Exercise (RAE2008), the School was ranked third in the UK for quality of research output. The University has been at the forefront of renewable and marine energy conversion research for 45 years.
The group combines expertise on technologies, energy system organisations and institutions, and the wider policy and regulatory context for energy. We apply a range of quantitative and qualitative research tools and methods including innovation systems, energy system modelling and scenarios, and transitions management. This leads to preparation of strategy and investment roadmaps for organisations' funding, public and private investment and government departments. |
