Background

Dr Coker is a chartered Mechanical Engineer, whose academic career followed 15 years in the UK gas industry as an engineer, manager and consultant. His research has explored the challenges of variability as we integrate ever higher levels of renewable energy in our energy systems. This work developed from characterising patterns in energy supply, through analysing areas of critical concern for energy systems, to exploring solutions such as demand response, energy storage, electric vehicle integration and hydrogen applications. Industry relevance has remained paramount and projects have involved partners including energy companies, energy users and solutions providers. This combined with teaching across low carbon infrastructure, carbon management and wider sustainability principles. Phil now operates as a part time academic, balancing his time with conservation volunteering. This is feeding a growing fascination with the complex interplay between the natural environment and engineered infrastructure systems.
