Background
Professor John Oakey has over 30 years experience in energy industries and has been progressing his career at Cranfield University since 1998. Prior to this, he was a senior Branch Manager in British Coal's Coal Technology Development Division (CTDD), leading a range of clean coal technology research programmes. With this research background in energy technologies, in particular materials and process troubleshooting, he has been at the forefront of many of the UK's clean coal projects in recent years. These include the BC/CEGB Joint Programme on PFBC, the Grimethorpe Topping Cycle Project and the Air Blown Gasification Cycle Programme in the 1990s. More recently, he chaired the EU COST Action 538 Management Committee on 'High Temperature Plant Life Extension' and leads the UK side of a major collaboration programme with the US on 'Advanced Materials for Low Emission Power Plants', as well as assisting DECC in the development of further collaborations with the US. Since 1998, he has also been involved in technology transfer projects with China on gas cleaning, underground coal gasification and biomass co-firing.
