About Danny
Danny is a Senior Research Fellow in the School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics (Faculty of Science and Engineering). His research investigates the viability of offshore renewable energy, with a focus on resource assessment and energy system modelling. Danny completed an MEng (Hons) in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Manchester (2011), and a PhD in hydrodynamic modelling at the University of Southampton (2016), where he is now a visiting researcher. Danny was a Research Associate at Imperial College London, Department of Earth Science and Engineering (2016), where his research focused on the optimisation of tidal stream turbine arrays, with applications in the Alderney Race. Danny also has industry experience in the fields of tidal and wind energy working as the Resource Analyst at SIMEC Atlantis Energy (2017-2019) and as Business Information and Data Analyst at Ventient Energy (2019-2020).
