What is the EnGRG?

The Energy Geographies Research Group (EnGRG) is a not-for-profit volunteer organisation that supports research and teaching on the spatial dimensions of energy issues. We are a research group of the Royal Geographical Society with the Institute of British Geographers (RGS-IBG).

We aim to promote the study of energy's geographical dimensions and to facilitate research into energy's centrality within geography (a discipline that is committed to understanding society-environment relations).

"[G]eographical approaches to energy are best conceived as an academic borderland.

...the strength of energy geographers is their lack of ties to some common doctrine or particular mode of inquiry, which brings the flexibility required to contribute to multi-disciplinary research projects"

Kirby Calvert (2015)
