At Energy2050 we are looking at different ways to make and use energy. Our research covers Energy generation, use & demand, infrastructure & integration and Energy policy.
Energy2050 is one of the UK’s largest energy research institutes. Based at the University of Sheffield, we have over 120 academics and more than 250 PhD students undertaking energy research and innovation.
Energy2050 is an opportunity to collaborate with world leading academics across the energy research spectrum. We are dedicated to turning innovation into working solutions.
Scholarships available for UK/EU students with a First Class or Distinction undergraduate degree.
The project will be built on existing research, which has previously been carried out for many years by the Sheffield team, with the measurement data from the national PACT facilities and in collaboration with Electric Power Research Institute in the
This project aims to combine computational fluid dynamics simulations; chemical process modelling and virtual reality techniques and develop a virtual reality energy system simulation tool for future zero mission power generation system.
This project will use CFD as a tool, including using the Reynolds Average NS equations (RANS) and the Large Eddie Simulations (LES) and develop advanced new models to investigate the combustion phenomena that drive the heat transfer, pollutant emissi
Sheffield Solar, based in the Department of Physics at the University of Sheffield, has developed a service which provides forecasts for energy generation from photovoltaic (PV) systems in the UK for up to 72 hours ahead.
