About Us

This website is a resource created and managed by the People, Place and Energy Research Centre (PPERC) at the University of Manchester, UK.

PPERC brings together researchers working across the University to generate a critical and innovative outlook on challenges around energy participation, low-carbon transformations and equity. Our focus is on how the geographies of culture, infrastructure and social reproduction jointly shape energy systems change. 

We use the site to provide regular updates about projects, academic papers and policy recommendations. Visit our “PPERC Researchers” page to see the profiles of people working within PPERC, or visit our “Projects” page to read about ongoing work in more detail.
