  • Break-down of domestic electricity demand by load type

    The Smart Grid Journal Club brings together researchers from various disciplines working on smart grid related topics.  We meet on a regular bi-weekly basis and we discuss journal publications on smart grids.  We are an open and friendly group and we try to keep our meetings relaxed and informal.  If you are interested in joining us, please send us an email.

  • Edinburgh Fluid Dynamics Group logo

    The Edinburgh Fluid Dynamics Group aims to promote a sustainable culture of cooperation and leadership in fluid dynamics research within the University of Edinburgh.

  • The integration of distributed and non-dispatchable renewable energy into the wider energy system (electricity, heat/cold and transport) poses significant challenges for the design and operation of the energy system. For example, due to the increasing fraction of non-dispatchable generation it becomes more important to provide novel mechanisms to balance supply and demand.

  • Fluid dynamics plays an essential role in our everyday life. You might think of our blood flow, on hot summer days the air-conditioning system, the potable water network, or stirring our coffee in the mornings to enhance the mixing process and the heat transfer.

  • The Carbon Capture & Storage Journal Club brings together researchers from various disciplines working on CCS related topics and provides a platform for discussion of inter- and cross-disciplinary concepts.

  • Racing Sailing Yachts

    An EU - New Zealand research collaboration to develop synergies and make cutting edge breakthroughs in Yacht Engineering.
