The Royal Academy of Engineering Research Fellowships support early-career researchers to establish successful research careers and become future research leaders in their fields.


This new fellowship will support Matthew's work on achieving net zero with hybrid power systems.


Energy research


Energy research at Newcastle University is coordinated by the Centre for Energy.

The Centre works across a wide range of energy issues including:


  • Energy and energy efficiency

  • Security and resilience

  • Energy, justice and ethics

The Centre's mission is to contribute to the delivery of clean and affordable energy, the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 7.


Earlier this year, Newcastle was ranked first in the UK and eighth in the world out of 1,500 universities on action taken towards the UNSDGs.
