We are pleased to announce that the Centre on Innovation and Energy Demand (CIED), based at SPRU, have two new, fully-funded PhD positions available to start in September 2015; Applications are invited for PhD projects that contribute to this diverse research programme. We have identified three priority topics, namely: · Delivering near-zero energy non-domestic buildings · Car sharing - a low energy innovation catering to the needs of urban populations? · Policy mixes for energy demand and innovation We also welcome applications on other topics that are relevant to the Centre’s three research themes, namely: · Emergence: Projects contributing to this theme will study emerging and promising low energy innovations with the aim of better understanding the mechanisms and processes involved and the conditions for success. · Diffusion: Projects contributing to this theme will investigate the enablers and obstacles to diffusion of low-energy innovations, focusing on those that offer significant potential for demand reduction. · Impact: Projects contributing to this theme will explore the historical or potential future energy savings from low-energy innovations, and investigate how expectations of impacts are constructed. The doctoral researchers will work with Steve Sorrell, Florian Kern, Karoline Rogge and/or Noam Bergman at SPRU (Science & Technology Policy Research), University of Sussex, Brighton, UK. The application deadline is 31st May 2015. Applicants for this 3-year PhD should possess a good first degree (1st or 2:1) in a relevant subject. A Master’s degree is also normally required.
