Awarded the OIES-Saudi Aramco Fellowship with The Oxford Institute for Energy Studies to conduct a project entitled, “The Role of Nuclear Energy in the Global Energy Transition.” OIES is a world leading independent and autonomous energy research institute contributing to a more coherent and balanced global understanding of international energy markets and issues. As part of the Fellowship, I published the report, 'The Role of Nuclear Energy in the Global Energy Transition,' exploring the key motivations for the development of nuclear energy in the current global energy economy. It considers climate change as a key driver, but also discusses energy security and foreign relationships as other important motivating forces. It also outlines the different drivers for countries exporting nuclear technology and those importing it to generate domestic electricity, and provides important detail on the current reactors under construction, the providers of key technologies and the methodologies which various exporters use to gain a competitive position in the nuclear market place.
