Louis joined the University of Warwick as a Research Fellow in late 2022, where he does interdisciplinary work on energy and climate politics. He received his MPhil from Cambridge and PhD from Edinburgh, before becoming Research Director of a small green finance think tank, writing public interest reports on topics including the target-setting framework of the $130tn Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero, and a scheme supported by the Asian Development Bank to purchase and retire half of the coal-fired generation capacity of South East Asia. His research centres on energy, climate and world politics. He is currently engaged in a series of work to critically rethink what energy security and geopolitics mean in today’s world – theoretically, historically, and for the UK in particular. His outlook is interdisciplinary, and he has interests across international relations, political economy, intellectual history, energy and environmental politics, and political theory.
