3 Fully-funded PhD Studentships in Energy Demand Reduction 

University of Leeds is delighted to announce a major investment in supporting world leading research on energy demand. These PhD studentships will contribute to a programme of research with the, UKRI funded, Energy Demand Research Centre (https://www.edrc.ac.uk/). 

Due to the inter-disciplinary nature of the centre, we welcome applicants with a wide range of academic backgrounds including social sciences, engineering and natural sciences who have a passion for understanding how to accelerate the transition towards a zero carbon economy through enabling a profound reduction in energy demand. 

Some potential topics are listed below but these should be seen to be indicative and applicants are encouraged to bring forward their own ideas for topics:
- Tax reforms for systemic change
- Aspirational consumption as a barrier and opportunity for change in reducing energy demand
- Public sector organizations as agents of change
- Tourism as a barrier and opportunity for change
- Offshore or reshore: the future of UK industry and its impact on energy demand
