Our Energy and Environment Institute is tackling global environmental resilience and energy sustainability.
The Centres for Doctoral Training (CDTs) in offshore wind energy are developing a diverse range of future leaders for the sector, focused on maximising the potential of offshore wind and providing a pipeline of talented professionals. While our industry-leading Aura Innovation Centre combines research expertise and fresh ideas to enable businesses to reduce their carbon footprint.
Our work to build flood resilience has guided £5.2 billion in flood funding, protecting 300,000+ homes, and our research has informed UK national flood policy.
We’re proud to lead a £2 million national network building flood resilience in the UK’s coastal communities in the COAST-R project, and as part of the Living with Water partnership, we’re working with communities to raise awareness of flooding and flood risk measures. The Risky Cities project builds on this work, engaging with communities to raise climate awareness and build flood resilience.
We're tackling the climate crisis head-on – delivering innovative solutions that protect communities, power the green economy, and secure a more resilient planet. Read more about the groundbreaking work behind these solutions.
Presented evidence to the UK Government on how flood resilience can be strengthened in response to increasing environmental risks.
Briony recently presented evidence to the UK Government on how flood resilience can be strengthened in response to climate change. As lead for the national Coast-R Network, she works to build knowledge, action and resilience for UK coastal communities and seas.
Our regional partnership with industry and the Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority is primed to unlock up to £30 million in government investment in the Humber’s Energy Estuary.
Our ESPRC Centres for Doctoral Training in Offshore Wind Energy work directly with industry, tackling clean energy challenges through cutting-edge academic research and a pipeline of future sector leaders.
