The Centre for Integrated Energy Research was initiated in October 2010, through a substantial investment by the University of Leeds’ Transformation Fund.

The Centre is a joint venture between the Faculties of Engineering and Environment and has connectivity right across the Leeds campus and beyond.

Through world-class research integrating technological, economics and policy, and socio-technical aspects of energy, the Centre aims to deliver key tools needed to enable, enhance and accelerate transition to low carbon, secure, economically viable and socially equitable energy systems at national, European and global levels.
