Research interests

Dr Andrew Burlinson has published in international peer-reviewed journals including, Research Policy, Social Science and Medicine, and Energy Economics. He has worked on several projects funded by UKERC, Ofgem, EPSRC and CERRE.

Andrew is embedded in the current policy and research areas of consumer decision-making on the adoption of energy efficient and renewable technologies, and inequality within energy markets, with a focus on the deleterious effects of poverty on health, wellbeing, and healthy eating, as well as the resilience of households to high energy prices.

Andrew has contributed to policy discussions and roundtables with leading experts and practitioners, including the APPG on Fuel Poverty and Energy Efficiency, the Westminster Energy, Environment and Transport Forum, Ofgem and National Energy Action.

His findings have received national (e.g., BBC Radio, Daily Mail, ITV, The Sun) and global interest (Africa, Asia, Europe, and America), as well as featured in Understanding Society's Insights Report, National Energy Action's 2023 Fuel Poverty Monitor, and Nottingham City Council’s Fuel Poverty Strategy (2018-2025).
