The application of inelastic neutron scattering to investigate the steam reforming of methane over an alumina-supported nickel catalyst (2013)
Journal Article
McFarlane, A. R., Silverwood, I. P., Norris, E. L., Ormerod, R. M., Frost, C. D., Parker, S. F., & Lennon, D. (2013). The application of inelastic neutron scattering to investigate the steam reforming of methane over an alumina-supported nickel catalyst. Chemical Physics, 427, 54-60. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemphys.2013.10.012

An alumina-supported nickel catalyst, previously used in methane reforming experiments employing CO2 as the oxidant, is applied here in the steam reforming variant of the process. Micro-reactor experiments are used to discern an operational window co...

Big Society, little justice? Community energy and the politics of localism? (2013)
Journal Article
Catney, P., MacGregor, S., Dobson, A., Hall, S., Royston, S., Robinson, Z., …Ross, S. (2013). Big Society, little justice? Community energy and the politics of localism?. Local Environment, https://doi.org/10.1080/13549839.2013.792044

This paper challenges ‘Big Society (BS) Localism’, seeing it as an example of impoverished localist thinking which neglects social justice considerations. We do this through a critical examination of recent turns in the localist discourse in the UK w... Read More about Big Society, little justice? Community energy and the politics of localism?.

Community knowledge networks: An action-orientated approach to energy research (2013)
Journal Article
Robinson, Z., Ross, S., Catney, P., Dobson, A., Hall, S., Hards, S., …Ormerod, M. (2013). Community knowledge networks: An action-orientated approach to energy research. Local Environment, https://doi.org/10.1080/13549839.2012.748729

The Climate Change Act 2008 commits the UK to reducing carbon emissions by 80 percent of 1990 levels by 2050. With household emissions constituting more than a quarter of current total energy use in the UK, energy practices in the home have taken on...
