London (PRWEB UK) 7 February 2013
Leading renewable electricity supplier Good Energy and world-class university Birkbeck, University of London, have today launched a pioneering new PhD studentship on renewable energy.
At a time when energy bills are hardly out of the headlines and renewable energy is a hot topic for industry, consumers and government alike, the student awarded the funding will assess what would happen if we didnt invest in renewable energy technology, given the rising global energy demand.
The fully-funded four-year studentship offers an exceptional candidate the opportunity to draw on expertise from industry and study in central London at Birkbeck one of the top 200 universities in the world.
The research project is a result of long-standing close links between Good Energy the UKs leading 100 per cent renewable electricity supplier and academics at Birkbeck. Juliet Davenport OBE, CEO and founder of Good Energy, studied an MSc in Economics at Birkbeck (1992-1994), and is pleased to be supporting this joint undertaking with researchers at her alma mater.
Davenport said: Were hugely excited to be working with Birkbeck in supporting this studentship. Good Energy strives to lead the way in thinking around the energy challenges we face, both now and in the future. In looking at those challenges in a new way, we hope that we will all be better placed to provide the solutions needed to meet them.
Professor David Latchman CBE, Master of Birkbeck, said: I am delighted about the Good Energy PhD studentship. This provides a brilliant opportunity for an exceptional student to investigate this important area at a time when postgraduate funding is in very short supply. We are extremely grateful to Juliet and Good Energy for their support.
Good Energy is funding the studentship, which covers the cost of tuition fees for Home/EU students, provides a maintenance grant of
