PhD opportunity in Energy Flexibility and Social Inequalities at Cranfield University, United Kingdom. This project explores how energy flexibility—changing when electricity is used, generated or stored—can support a fairer net-zero transition. The research will examine who benefits from decentralised energy systems, who faces exclusion and how flexibility benefits can be distributed more inclusively. Applicants will develop their own research proposal with Dr Pegah Mirzania. Possible themes inc...
