NUS has over 160 researchers from various disciplines conducting energy-related research. Current research studies range from climate change, energy efficiency management, energy storage and exploration of new energy sources. The convergence of these specializations creates a dynamic multi-disciplinary environment in which our researchers shine.

NUS energy experts work across disciplines and faculties, and closely with government institutions and industry. In addition to their individual work in NUS faculties, many of our experts are also involved in research with following specialized Institutes established within the university.

NUS Environmental Research Institute (NERI)
NERI coordinates, integrates and facilitates research and educational initiatives across NUS, building on the university’s capabilities to create initiatives that address critical environmental topics. NERI coordinates focused recruitment of eminent scholars, faculty, fellows and graduate students to expand NUS’ capabilities in key environmental areas. Through interactive pursuit of excellence in initiatives across the University, NERI conducts cutting-edge research in a range of high impact areas from fundamental to applied levels.

Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore (SERIS)
SERIS is Singapore's national institute for applied solar energy research. The institute is sponsored by the National University of Singapore (NUS) and Singapore's National Research Foundation (NRF) through the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB). SERIS conducts industry-oriented research and development as well as use-inspired basic research in the field of solar energy conversion. SERIS is globally active but focuses on technologies and services for tropical regions, in particular for Singapore, South- and South-East Asia. SERIS has cleanrooms, laboratories and offices on the NUS campus, with additional facilities in the International Business Park. For more information on SERIS, go to www.seris.nus.edu.sg/.

Energy Studies Institute (ESI)
Energy Studies Institute (ESI) is a multi-disciplinary, autonomous research institute established within the National University of Singapore in November 2007. It is a leading institute for strategic research and a global thought leader in energy. ESI provides independent, quality and timely policy research and analysis of regional and global energy trends and issues in energy economics, security and the environment.
