Centre for Energy and Resource Technology

The Centre for Energy and Resource Technology brings together capabilities from across the University to address issues affecting the national climate change and energy agendas in areas such as energy security, control of energy price, power generating capacity, resource efficiency, waste disposal and pollution control.

The Centre has a number of important projects including a nationally funded initiative by the Energy Technologies Institute (ETI) to identify next generation technologies for producing energy from waste. The Centre has a programme of work on the national agenda of energy technology, resource management and carbon capture and storage.

There is an urgent need to increase development and use low-carbon technologies to meet ambitious EU Renewable energy targets. The future security of our environment, economy, and our energy supplies depends on making informed decisions now.
