Biography
I am Lecturer in Wind Energy Engineering in the School of Engineering & Architecture and Funded Investigator in the SFI MaREI centre for Energy, Climate and Marine. I lead a multidisciplinary team of six PhD students and two research assistants who collaborate with multiple disciplines with funding from the EPA, SFI, industry, EU, and SEAI.
I am Senior Editor of Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews, a multidisciplinary journal published by Elsevier, and a Principal Investigator of the US-Ireland circular economy project Re-Wind which developed sustainable repurposed infrastructure from end-of-life wind turbine blades.
I was a national expert reviewer of the IPCC Special Report SR1.5 on Global Warming of 1.5 °C, have acted as grant reviewer for the Kuwait Foundation for the Advancement of Sciences and the Irish Research Council, and am a member of the UKRI Engineering & Physical Sciences Research Council Peer Review College.
In 2022 I was appointed to the Climate Change & Environmental Sciences Multidisciplinary Committee of the Royal Irish Academy in 2022. I serve as Chair of the Energy Cork industry-public sector cluster and am a member of the Steering Group of the International Energy Agency Wind Task 45 on Recycling Wind Turbine Blades.
Research Interests
My research interests are sustainable applications for decommissioned wind turbine blades; wind energy forecasting; energy storage and hydrogen in supporting renewable electricity integration.
I am also interested in greenhouse gas flux measurements from peatlands and the impacts of extreme weather events on agriculture and infrastructure.
