SCOPING RD&D PRIORITIES FOR A LOW CARBON FUTURE, For the Carbon Trust

Abstract

The Centre was formed to study technologies and policies on energy and environment. It brings three long-standing strengths of Imperial College to bear on modern energy and environmental problems: • The science and technology of all aspects of energy production and use and pollution abatement • The analysis of the environmental impact of energy-related pollution on ecosystems and human health • The economic, legal and institutional aspects of energy and environmental policies. ICCEPT undertakes research at the interface between energy policy and technology development and aims to provide dispassionate advice to governments, industry, the public and international organisations
