Abstract

The Centre for Energy Policy (CEP) at the University of Strathclyde works with research, government and industry partners to understand and address the pressing public policy challenge of ensuring transitions to mid-century net zero targets deliver sustainable and more equitable prosperity. Since its launch in 2015, CEP has established a solid track record of independent, rigorous and multidisciplinary research on energy and climate issues set in a wider public policy context, with a particular focus on the macroeconomic and distributional impacts of energy policy decisions. The Centre has helped shape UK and Scottish Government policy in areas including energy efficiency, industrial decarbonisation, heat decarbonisation, fuel poverty and low carbon transport. CEP's research consistently demonstrates that the economic and distributional outcomes of any decarbonisation pathway are crucially dependent on 'who pays, how and when' for transition costs, and that understanding these funding mechanisms is essential before macroeconomic and equity impacts can be accurately projected. As lead of the Equity theme within the Energy Demand Research Centre (EDRC), CEP researchers have recently examined the economy-wide impacts of different approaches to addressing fuel poverty, providing evidence-based analysis directly relevant to policy debates around energy bill support mechanisms and cost recovery, including ending the Energy Company Obligation (ECO).
