UK Centre for Research on Energy Demand
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Oxford
Abstract
This proposal responds to a call from the Research Councils for a national Centre on energy demand research, building on the work of the existing six End Use Energy Demand Centres, for which funding ends in April 2018.
Energy demand reduction is a UK success story, with a 15% fall in final energy consumption since 2004. Major further reductions are possible and will be needed, as part of a transformation of the energy system to low carbon, to deliver the goals of the Paris Agreement and the UK carbon budgets. Moreover, a low carbon energy system will be increasingly reliant upon inflexible and variable electricity generation, and therefore demand will also need to become more flexible. In short, changes in energy demand reduction will need to go further and faster, and demand will need to become more flexible.
These challenges have far-reaching implications for technology, business models, social practices and policy. Our vision is for energy demand research in the UK to rise to these challenges. The Centre's ambition is to lead whole systems work on energy demand in the UK, collaborating with a wider community both at home and internationally. We aim to deliver globally leading research on energy demand, to secure much greater impact for energy demand research and to champion the importance of energy demand for delivering environmental, social and economic goals.
Our research programme is inter-disciplinary, recognising that technical and social change are inter-dependent and co-evolve. It is organised into six Themes. Three of these address specific issues in the major sectors of energy use, namely: buildings, transport and industry. The remaining three address more cross-cutting issues that drive changing patterns of demand, namely the potential for increased flexibility, the impact of digital technologies, and energy policy and governance.
Each Theme has a research programme that has been developed with key stakeholders and will provide the capacity for the Centre to inform debate, deliver impact and share knowledge in its specific area of work. The Themes will also undertake collaborative work, with our first joint task being to assess the role of energy demand in delivering the objectives of the UK Government's Clean Growth Plan.
The Centre will also include Challenges that respond to cross-thematic questions for UK energy demand. These will mostly be developed in consultation over the early years of the Centre, and therefore only one is included in the initial plan: on the decarbonisation of heat.
The Centre will function as a national focus for inter-disciplinary research on energy demand. In doing this it will need to respond to a rapidly evolving energy landscape. It will therefore retain 25% of its funds to allocate during the lifetime of the Centre through a transparent governance process. These funds will support further challenges and a 'Flexible Fund', which will be used to support research on emerging research questions, in particular through support for early career researchers.
We are working closely with key stakeholders in business and policy to design our research programme and we plan detailed knowledge exchange activities to ensure that the work of the UK energy demand research community has broader societal impact.

Planned Impact
The Centre aims to be a globally leading research organisation in the field of energy demand. The scale of energy demand, its flexibility and how these might change are increasingly recognised to be key dimensions of the challenge of transforming energy systems to be low carbon to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement on climate change. In a UK context, using energy more efficiently and flexibly is critical to developing an affordable, secure, low-carbon energy system.
The outputs of our research will set out how technical, behavioural and social change can reduce energy demand across all the main energy-using sectors of the economy: buildings, transport and industry. In addition, we will identify the main approaches to making energy more flexible, the opportunities resulting from the digital economy and how policy might drive change.
To ensure these results have an impact, we will produce a range of different outputs, including policy and business briefings, media articles and conference presentations. The Centre will also interact directly with key stakeholders. We will have a strong network of active partners, who will assist in dissemination of our research results. We will collaborate with them over the lifetime of the Centre to shape the research programme, co-create projects, discuss conclusions and plan outcomes.
As a national Centre, we will represent the whole energy demand research community in our events and outputs. In this way, the Centre will act as the focal point for UK university based research on energy demand issues. It will play a key role in ensuring that relevant research in UK universities is made available to businesses and policy-makers addressing these challenges.
Our key non-academic audiences will be: businesses directly engaged in promoting energy demand innovation and major industrial energy users; policymakers and their influencers, in the UK and more widely; other organisations supporting energy demand reduction and flexibility; and the media that communicates on these issues to the general public.
Our modelling work will produce data and software tools, which we will make available to other researchers via the UK Data Archive and the UKERC Data Centre.
Our first output will be an analysis of the energy demand aspects of the UK Government's Clean Growth Plan and Industrial Strategy. And we will provide evidence to the Committee on Climate Change for the UK's 6th Carbon Budget.
We will develop strong international research partnerships, through a visitor programme and strategic links with key research organisations in other countries. Through these we aim to influence the reports of the Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change.

| Description | CREDS is a major research Centre which investigates why and how energy is used in the UK. Our initial findings show that, to meet the Government's goals for an affordable transition to a secure low-carbon energy system by mid-century, there will need to be major changes to the use of energy, including a major reduction in energy use, more flexible energy use and the decarbonisation of energy use. The details of these findings are set out in the large number of publications listed. An overview of our initial findings is in the summary report: "Shifting the focus: energy demand in a net-zero carbon UK". A more recent summary of options for reducing demand significantly is in our report "Positive Low Energy Futures" available at https://www.creds.ac.uk/positive-low-energy-futures/ There are many more detailed publications listed at www.creds.ac.uk/publications We plan to produce a summary of key findings later this year. |

| Impact | The Torriti & Yunusov (2020) paper provided the main evidence on the distributional effects associated with Time-of-Use tariffs, by clustering UK consumers and assessing the impacts of Time of Use Tariffs on the electricity bills for different income groups. The methodology makes use of half-hourly smart-meter data and data from the 2014-15 UK Time Use Survey to analyse the distributional effects of Time-of-Use tariffs in terms of customer segmentation, peak to off-peak ratios and synthetic profiles. The findings reveal regional differences (for example, positive effects for high-income groups in London) and household composition similarities (for example, positive effects for households with children not in the high-income group). The regulatory reform of tariffs will bring about estimated bill savings for UK residential customers of between GBP1,600,000,000 and GBP4,600,000,000 from 2021 to 2045 |

| Impact | The paper cited in Ofgem's Impact Assessment on 'Electricity Retail Market-wide Half-hourly Settlement' provided the main evidence on the distributional effects associated with Time-of-Use tariffs, by clustering UK consumers and assessing the impacts of Time of Use Tariffs on the electricity bills for different income groups. The methodology makes use of half-hourly smart-meter data and data from the 2014-15 UK Time Use Survey to analyse the distributional effects of Time-of-Use tariffs in terms of customer segmentation, peak to off-peak ratios and synthetic profiles. The findings reveal regional differences (for example, positive effects for high-income groups in London) and household composition similarities (for example, positive effects for households with children not in the high-income group). In summary, the research findings have demonstrated the economic value, and resultant cost savings, of demand-side flexibility across industry sectors and residential consumers. In addition, for the residential consumer, the research has highlighted the distributional effects of Time-of-Use tariffs between socioeconomic groups. Collectively, this research has informed policy on the UK Capacity Market as well as regulatory reform in support of Time-of-Use tariffs. |

| Title | ESTIMO - Energy Space Time Integrated Model Optimiser (ESTIMO) |
| Description | Brief description: Objective: the first aim is to estimate the optimum balance of storage and transmission in a high renewables European energy system across 30 countries, with a focus on the electricity vector. ESTIMO is be applied to 30 European countries. To reduce model size and run time, these 30 countries can be flexibly aggregated to a smaller number of contingent blocs. Star transmission networks are explored. Status: In September 2021, historic data has been mostly collected and preliminary simulations have been done of the UK to analyse storage needs. Wind and solar generation simulation models have been developed and calibrated. Simulation and scenario modules are developed. ESTIMO has been applied to develop nine zero emission system designs for the UK and Europe with different heat pump, district heating and hydrogen shares, and different configurations of renewables, storage and interconnector capacities. ESTIMO has been run with 35 years of historic meterology data to test long term resilience, and the impact of climate change on heating and cooling demands has been simulated. DATA Historical data is collated from a number of public and commercial data sources. The data is processed using Python and data packages, notable Pandas, across a number of data formats (excel, csv, etc.). MODEL: The ESTIMO model comprise three principal components: A scenario model to project European energy developments over years. Hourly simulation model comprising demand, supply, storage and transmission calculations. Optimisation which will seek the least cost configuration of the system. Scenario model Demand/supply scenario model for years 2015 to 2050. This is based on algorithms in the SEEScen (Society Energy Environment Scenario) model by Barrett (2007). It accounts for assumptions about: the drivers (population, economic growth, etc.) demand efficiency (insulation, appliances etc.) end use energy mix (boilers, heat pumps, CHP) secondary energy systems (district heating, hydrogen/ammonia) and storage. primary energy supply (fossil, nuclear, renewable) transmission The country outputs of this model can be aggregated to reduce model size. For example the 30 countries might aggregated to 4 blocs - north, south, east and west. The balance between model accuracy and speed can thus be explored. The outputs of this model, such as building heat loss, will be inputs to the hourly simulation model. Hourly simulation: The hourly simulation of energy demand and primary energy flow will be based on the algorithms in the DynEMo model first developed by Prof Barrett for research (2010), and for commercial models used by National Grid and Western Power Distribution. Demand: hourly demand model for each country driven by social & meteorological data. The DynEMo demand algorithms are implemented in Python by Dr Tiziano Gallo Cassarino. Supply: hourly supply model for each country driven by demand & meteorological data A detailed wind and solar generation model using hourly meteorology data has been developed by Dr Ed Sharp. The starting point is modelling generation from the current wind farms across Europe. Hourly flows through storage and transmission will be calculated. A star configured transmission network is assumed in which each network node (country) is connected to a single central node. A complex operational algorithm controls energy flows through the system. Implementation: All data and model programmes are written in Python and use Python packages and libraries: all of this software is free. The software runs on Windows or Unix based desktop machines. Model run speed will be improved where necessary with techniques such as compiling the code with Numba. If speed becomes a problem, UCL's Legion High Performance Cluster might be used. Packages used for data handling include Pandas. Simulation utilises Python libraries including NumPy and SciPy. Optimisation of system design first focuses on storage and transmission decision variables. Algorithms from Python optimisation libraries such as SciPy (genetic, steepest descent, etc.), and our own implementation of biology-inspired ones, have been tested. Integrated presentation of results in interactive charts and maps is being developed using routines from various Python visualisation libraries (e.g. Matplotlib, Bokeh, Seaborn) and Plotly. |

A particularly complex part of the ESTIMO is the operational algorithm which controls the hourly flows through energy converters, stores (electricity, heat, ammonia, hydrogen) and inter-regional interconnectors so as to make good use of the available renewable resources in each hour. ESTIMO has been presented in several online sessions, to BEIS, Supergen and to CREDS. A paper |

| Title | Dataset associated with "Characterising the energy use of disabled people in the European Union towards inclusion in the energy transition" |
| Description | This dataset contains household-level energy footprint (energy use) calculations based on consumption data from the Household Budget Surveys (HBS) disseminated by Eurostat, wave 2010. The dataset contains energy footprints (total and by consumption category) and categorical variables on poverty, energy poverty and disability, all of which generated by the authors. The dataset also contains household IDs, country codes and household weights generated by Eurostat and corresponding to the HBSs. The household and country ID variables are included in order to allow for households to be identifiable by users of the HBS dataset disseminated by Eurostat. For access to other variables in the HBSs (e.g. household size, income, population density etc.), which have been used in the statistical analysis, please seek microdata access through the official Eurostat portal. Designing environmental policy to take account of social difference is increasingly recognised as essential to address both effectiveness and justice concerns. To date there is limited research on the experiences of disabled people in the environmental literature, amounting to a failure to recognise this substantial constituency. Here we compare disabled households' embodied energy use, income, risk of poverty and energy poverty, and other socio-demographics to other households in Europe. We find that households that include an economically inactive disabled person earn less and consume 10% less energy than other households, as well as being more likely to experience energy poverty. Disabled households have lower consumption than other households in most categories, with the exception of basic consumption such as food, energy at home (gas and electricity), water and waste services: in effect they have less, and sometimes inadequate access to resources. We conclude that more attention should be paid to disabled households needs to ensure a just energy transition. |

| Title | High Energy Consumers, the Excess Project: Qualitative Data, 2018-2023 |
| Description | . This project uses novel datasets of domestic and mobility-related consumption data (for example, see www.motproject.net) plus primary quantitative and qualitative data, to develop and test a methodology for identifying, characterising and assessing locations that have disproportionately high levels of energy consumption (i.e. gas, electricity and car based mobility). This data collection includes a User Guide and the anonymised transcripts of 30 semi-structured interviews of #60-90 minutes each, with 31 high household energy consumers, about their homes, appliances, infrastructures, vehicles, and everyday life and travel practices that generate household (domestic and travel-related) energy demand. It also includes the anonymised transcripts of 4 3-hour deliberatively workshops of ~8 public participants and 2 facilitators, one recruited from the interviewees, and the others recruited to represent different levels of domestic and travel-related energy consumption, held to discuss the validity, fairness, effectively and acceptability of four broad policy approaches to reduce (particularly high levels of) household energy consumption: Rationing; Economic (Dis)Incentives; Structural Change; and Behaviour Change. |

| Impact | The findings are considered in the context of political theory and theories of consumption to structure definitions of high use consumers and to develop and assess approaches to equitable radical reductions. This understanding is informing another project to model electricity networks at a local level. What we are asking How can we meaningfully identify, assess and characterise households or locations with disproportionately high levels of energy consumption? What is energy demand being used for in the highest consuming households? To what extent is high energy demand for domestic use correlated with high energy demand from mobility? When is income a principal determinant of excess demand, and when is it not? What is the relationship between energy poverty and excess demand? To what extent do those who consume most energy also have the greatest social and economic capital to reduce consumption? |

| Title | Interviews with actors concerned with local transport decarbonisation in the UK, 2018-2023 |
| Description | Interviews with actors concerned with local transport decarbonisation in the UK, including challenges related to finance, governance arrangements, and public support. Data were collected using a series of 54 interviews, spread equally across three case study sites: 18 Nottingham, 18 Leeds, and 18 Oxford. Of those, 12 of the Nottingham interviews, all 18 of the Leeds interviews, and 8 of the Oxford interviews are shared in this data deposit (the rest did not give permission for their data to be deposited). The interviews were designed to reveal different local perspectives on areas' recent attempts to decarbonise their transport system. The initial introduction to each participant was facilitated by pre-existing professional contacts, after which subsequent participants were identified by snowballing (i.e. feedback from interview participants) in combination with criteria-specific identification (i.e. from a review of published local authority documents |

| Description | EPSRC-SFI Centre for Doctoral Training - ERBE |
| Organisation | Loughborough University |
| Country | United Kingdom |
| Sector | Academic/University |
| PI Contribution | Prof Lowe, PI of the CREDS Heat Theme, is PI/Director for the EPSRC-SFI funded Centre for Doctoral Training in Energy Resilience and the Built Environment (ERBE - https://erbecdt.ac.uk). The ERBE CDT won funding in December 2019. Our first intake of students took place in September 2019. Energy System Resilience is a key requirement for current and future energy systems. There is therefore significant overlap between the objectives of the Heat Theme and the CDT. ERBE's predecessor, LoLo, has produced PhDs on various aspects of building energy performance, including one on performance of heat pumps, one on acoustic monitoring of the performance of gas boilers (which in principle makes it possible to extend the mix of gases that such boilers burn), and several on the performance of central heating systems. Two LoLo PhDs on District Heating are currently awaiting examination, and a third is in her 2nd year of studies. A key feature of the CDT is its strong stakeholder support, with a large and engaged Advisory Board that meets twice a year. Among our stakeholders are PassivSystems, a company actively involved in the development of Hybrid Heat Pumps, and EDF Energy. |
| Collaborator Contribution | The ERBE CDT is a three-way collaboration between the core partners. The Loughborough team is led by Prof Kevin Lomas - the collaboration between Lowe and Lomas started in 2009. The Irish contribution involves a consortium of academic institutions in Ireland, led by Prof Brian O'Gallachoir of University College Cork and Marine and Renewable Energy Ireland (MaREI). Among the many benefits of the collaboration with MaREI is that they retain excellent connections with colleagues and organisations in the EU. There are multiple connections between all three core partners. These include supervision and co-supervision of PhD students outside the CDT. One such, who graduated in 2019, is a CoI on the Heat Challenge. |
| Impact | Although funded by EPSRC, and with its centre of gravity in physics and engineering, ERBE is multidisciplinary, with inputs from architects, economists and social scientists, as well as physicists and engineers.

| Results and Impact | Alice Garvey speaking about low-carbon diets on BBC Radio 5 Live, and on the BBC News Channel. Also contributing to a BBC 5 Live blog on the subject: Experts say eating a full English creates roughly the same carbon emissions as driving seven kilometres in an average petrol car. So, is it possible to reduce this environmental impact while still enjoying a traditional cooked breakfast? BBC Radio 5 Live challenged former Master Chef semi-finalist Anthony O'Shaughnessy to make a lower-carbon fry-up. Climate expert Alice Garvey says if you enjoy a weekly cooked breakfast then swapping to this over the course of a year could save the same amount of carbon as a short flight to Brussels. The UK government has pledged to reduce greenhouse gas emissions significantly by 2035. Scientists say this is needed to keep the rise in global temperatures close to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels'. This could be achieved through measures like more electric cars, low-carbon heating, renewable electricity and, for many, cutting down on meat and dairy. |
