Anne Owen
Anne Owen is an academic fellow at the Sustainability Research Institute at the School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds, UK. Dr. Owen has a background in end-use energy demand and consumption-based energy and carbon accounting using state-of-the-art multiregional input–output (MRIO) databases. Her PhD thesis was one of the first studies to compare outputs from different global MRIO databases. She is responsible for constructing the model being used to calculate UK’s carbon and material footprint—the statistics reported annually by the UK Government. Her latest research focusses on the contribution that demographic change—specifically the change in household types and household consumption—has on UK’s carbon and energy accounts. She works closely with the UK Government and not-for-profit agencies providing quantitative evidence to influence UK’s policy.
