Overview
As Dean of Environmental Sustainability at Cardiff University and Professor of Sustainable Engineering, I lead the strategic integration of climate action and environmental sustainability across the university’s research, education, operations, and civic engagement. My work is driven by the conviction that universities must not only generate solutions to the climate crisis but also model the institutional transformations required for a just, net-zero future.
I chair the University's Environmental Sustainability Subcommittee and oversee Sustainable Futures, Cardiff University’s institutional plan for environmental sustainability, as well as our pathway to becoming a net-zero and nature-positive university. I collaborate across the University with professional services, academic units, and senior leadership to integrate sustainability into all aspects of decision-making, operations, and strategic development. I also serve as Cardiff’s designated contact for the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and represent the university in global forums on sustainability and climate change.
With a multidisciplinary background in architecture, engineering, and data science, my academic expertise spans net-zero energy systems, carbon accounting, AI-driven energy forecasting, and 2050 pathways modelling. I have led several major research initiatives at the intersection of technology, environment, and society. As a Turing Fellow at The Alan Turing Institute, I explore the use of AI and digital twins to optimise the energy and environmental performance of buildings and cities and to support behavioural change.
I led two landmark strategic foresight projects—Wales 2050 and Bangladesh 2050—which developed long-term sustainability pathways through integrated systems modelling and scenario planning. Bangladesh 2050 is the first initiative of its kind for a developing country, establishing a forward-looking national agenda that combines climate resilience, resource efficiency, and socio-economic transformation.
My research has been supported by UKRI, the European Commission, Innovate UK, the UK and Welsh Governments, Qatar National Research Fund (QNRF), the British Council, and other international development agencies. I serve as an associate editor and editorial board member for several leading journals in energy systems, environmental sustainability, and urban analytics. I regularly advise governments, industry, and NGOs on low-carbon policy, urban resilience, and sustainable development.
As an educator, I contribute to MSc and undergraduate programmes in environmental and building services engineering, and supervise doctoral and master's students working at the interface of digital innovation, climate adaptation, and sustainable design.
I welcome research and PhD enquiries in areas such as:
- AI-driven energy forecasting
- Digital twins for the built environment
- Climate-resilient urban design
- Carbon accounting and management
- Net-zero energy systems
- Integrated modelling of sustainability pathways
My overarching goal is to foster transformative change at scale—through research, leadership, and collaboration—to advance just, climate-resilient, and resource-efficient futures.
I am a Fellow of the British Computer Society and the Higher Education Academy, and have contributed extensively to professional organisations including IEEE, ASHRAE, and CIBSE. I previously chaired the IEEE Power & Energy Society (PES) Subcommittee on Smart Buildings, where I championed the role of digitalisation in energy systems planning and building performance evaluation.
