Professor Dimitris Potoglou
PhD (McMaster) FHEA
Professor in Transport and Applied Choice Analysis
School of Geography and Planning
- Media commentator
- Available for postgraduate supervision
Overview
Professor Dimitris Potoglou specialises in Transport and Applied Choice Analysis and is the Programme Director of the MSc Transport and Planning, a flagship specialist programme within the School of Geography and Planning.
Dimitris leads research in the areas of travel behaviour, demand for cleaner vehicles and related infrastructure, as well as innovative interdisciplinary research involving the study of individual choices.
His current research efforts relate to the behavioural aspects of ‘decarbonisation of road transport through electrification’, an increasingly critical area of transport and mobility decision making. The work primarily concentrates around four dimensions: (a) the demand for electric vehicles (EVs) (e.g., Potoglou et al., 2020; Potoglou and Song, 2020); (b) the demand for public EV charging infrastructure (e.g., Potoglou et al., 2023; Song and Potoglou, 2024); (c) the study of inequalities from the electrification of road transport (e.g., Hopkins et al., 2023); (d) the study of active travel uptake and the role of public transport infrastructure (e.g., Albahlal et al. 2024).
Dimitris is the UK lead of the 'Clean and Equitable Transportation' thrust of the CLEETS (Clean Energy and Equitable Transportation Solutions) Global Centre, a 5-year research initiative sponsored by the NSF and UKRI.
Parallel to this activity, Dimitris leads research work with the International Energy Agency’s Annex 79 on ‘occupants’ willingness to share information for improved comfort and energy efficiency’ (Haggar et al., 2022). This project involves a strong international group of researchers and links to Dimitris’ prior work on studying individuals’ privacy and security trade-offs in different contexts; for example, the value of personal information, privacy and security in real-life contexts such as healthcare data, internet use and rail-travel (e.g. Potoglou et al., 2015; Potoglou et al., 2017).
Dimitris currently serves as Member of the Welsh Government's Independent Review Panel for the 'Review and Implementation of Local Authority Air Quality Measures in Wales'. He is the editor (with Prof. Justin Spinney) of the 'Handbook of Travel Behaviour' (Edward Elgar), and serves as Associate Editor for Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment and the SAE International Journal of Sustainable Transportation, Energy, Environment, & Policy. He is also member of the editorial board for the Journal of Transport Geography, and Sustainability, Section: Sustainable Urban and Rural Development.
Prior to joining Cardiff University, Dimitris worked as a research policy analyst at RAND Europe, a not-for-profit research institute, and a post-doctoral fellow at the Delft University of Technology.

Supervisions
I am interested in supervising students in the following areas:
- Decarbonisation of the road transport system through electrification (e.g. charging preferences, preferences for business models of electric-vehicle use)
- Demand for and market segmentation of alternative fuelled vehicles and car ownership studies, more generally
- Novel applications of stated preference discrete choice experiments in areas critical to public policy and decision making
- Commuting, travel satisfaction and well-being
- Land-use and transport interactions; the role of the built environment and network design on travel behaviour decisions
- Active travel
- Governance and management of public transport systems
