Biography

Biography

Oliver Inderwildi is an expert in emission control and energy supply, specializing in the transport sector. He is a theoretical chemist who works on the means to reduce greenhouse gas and pollutant emissions without affecting mobility. His interests range from synthesis of alternative fuels to managing resource scarcity and public policy design.

A native of Switzerland, Dr Inderwildi is a research fellow at the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment at the University of Oxford, where he heads the School’s Centre for Low-Carbon Mobility. He is a Senior Member of Linacre College, Oxford University, and associated researcher at the Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Cambridge.

At the Smith School, Dr Inderwildi heads a team of researchers investigating ways in which transport emissions could be cut without reducing human mobility. The study includes technological advances in aviation and road transport, infrastructure systems, logistics as well as transport economics and policy.
Before joining the Smith School, Dr Inderwildi worked as a research fellow at the University of Cambridge and was a research associate at Trinity Hall. He completed his PhD on automotive emission control at the University of Heidelberg.
