Beth Robertson is a Research Assistant at Advanced Electrical Systems research group of the Electronic and Electrical Engineering Department at the University of Strathclyde. Beth’s principal research interests include multiple energy carrier energy system modelling and optimisation techniques as well as the reduction of emissions and increased efficiency in the energy sector through the integration of (distributed) low carbon energy sources.

From 2008 to 2012, Beth was a member of the EPSRC funded Transition Pathways consortium developing SiTIESS – Simulation Tool for Integrated Energy System Studies – before joining the EPSRC funded Realising Transition Pathways project to continue her research alongside consortium interdisciplinary research including investigating 50% distributed low-carbon electricity generation in the UK.
