Acknowledgements

The present research forms part of a programme at the University of Bath on the technology assessment of energy (including bioenergy and biofuel) systems supported by various UK research grants and contracts. In particular, the author was a Co-Investigator of the UK Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council’s (BBSRC) Sustainable Bioenergy Centre (BSBEC), under the ‘ Lignocellulosic Conversion to Ethanol’ (LACE) Programme [Grant Ref: BB/G01616X/1]. Prof. Katherine Smart (now Group Chief Brewer of SABMiller plc) and Prof. Greg Tucker of the University of Nottingham led this consortium, whilst BSBEC was directed by Duncan Eggar (then the BBSRC Bioenergy Champion). The author holds an Honorary Professorship in Sustainable Bioenergy at the University of Nottingham in addition to his main post. He is also the Principal Investigator and Co-Leader (with Prof. Peter Pearson of Cardiff University, Wales) of a large consortium of nine university partners funded by the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) under the title ‘ Realising Transition Pathways: Whole Systems Analysis for a UK More Electric Low Carbon Energy Future’ [Grant Ref: EP/K005316/1]. The author is very grateful to a range of graduate students who have contributed to the various footprinting studies undertaken at the University of Bath over the last decade or so: Helen Alderson, Gemma Cranston, Mark Doughty, Rebecca Eaton, Hayley Howard, Bo Li, Shashank Seth, and Hanumant Singh Rana. Finally, the author has benefited from an interchange with external colleagues who are part of the above consortia of university and other research partners. However, the views expressed in this paper are those of the author alone, and do not necessarily reflect the policies of the funders or partners.
