Biography
Brian Ó Gallachóir is Professor of Energy Engineering in University College Cork’s School of Engineering and Vice-Director of UCC’s Environmental Research Institute. He is also Director of the national SFI MaREI Centre, an energy and marine-based research, development and innovation hub. Brian is elected Chair of the Executive Committee for the International Energy Agency’s Technology Collaboration Programme on energy systems modelling (IEA-ETSAP). Brian's research focus is on building and using integrated energy systems models to inform energy and climate change mitigation policy. His research has been published extensively and has directly informed policy decisions. He is also a member of the national Gas Innovation Group in Ireland. An applied sciences graduate of Dublin Institue of Technology, Brian moved to Cork in 1990 to carry out a Doctoral research programme in ocean wave energy in the Department of Applied Mathematics. From 1995 - 1998, Brian was Technical Manager of the Renewable Energy Information Office of Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland.Research Grants
