Biography
I joined the Department of Politics and International Relations in 2023 as a Research Fellow for the ESRC project "Solar Planning in the UK". In this role, I work with a talented group of researchers across different work packages that mobilise quantitative and qualitative methodologies to study the reality of planning and deploying solar farms of up to 50MW in the UK.
I obtained my PhD in Geography from Durham University thanks to a 1+3 ESRC studentship. My research followed reconfigurations of the power system and its regulation in Italy as case studies for the sociomaterial assembling of sustainable transitions. Specifically, I focused on the proliferation of distributed generation technologies and of regional and national legislation on shared prosumption. The scholarly articles I wrote as a result highlight how more-than-human agents contribute to changing governance structures and to new imaginaries of both sovereignty and the future of the energy system.
