Karim L. Anaya has over 15 years of experience in utility regulation, having worked for telecom, water and energy regulators in developing and developed economies. She is a former Senior Research Associate at the Energy Policy Research Group (EPRG) at the University of Cambridge. She has helped to shape the next generation of electricity networks and system operators (assessing different innovation projects and local flexibility markets), collaborating with regulatory agencies, public utilities and electricity system operators. She has also advised on price control regulation, providing new and enhanced evidence of productivity growth of GB electricity distribution networks. She is currently a Senior Regulation Lead at ENOWA, an energy and water utility. Here, she is helping to build the new energy pricing and carbon regulation frameworks, electricity tariff scheme and energy market design for NEOM, a special economic region in Saudi Arabia. Karim holds a PhD degree in Energy Economics and a Master degree in Technology Policy from University of Cambridge.Adetokunboh Bakenne is an experienced engineering researcher and consultant. He obtained his PhD in Nuclear Engineering from the University of Manchester. He then focussed on matters of energy technology and policy with his move to The Open University, where he worked as a research fellow on the future of the hydrogen economy. Bakenne has extensive consultancy experience in matters concerning commercial technology and risk assessment in a range of sectorsWilliam J. Nuttall has more than 20 years’ experience as a researcher and commentator on energy technology and policy. Originally trained in physics (MIT USA PhD 1993) his main areas of professional interest have been nuclear energy in all its various aspects, and hydrogen energy. He is the author with Dr Adetokunboh Bakenne of Fossil Fuel Hydrogen (Springer, 2020). From 2012 to 2024 Dr Nuttall was Professor of Energy at The Open University, UK. He is currently a Visiting Professor in the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Bristol, UK. He maintains close links to various universities and research institutes worldwide. Joseph B. Powell is Executive Director & Shell Endowed Chair for Energy Transition at the University of Houston, and Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering.   He is a member of the U.S. National Academy of Engineering, Fellow and former Director of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, former Shell Chief Scientist – Chemical Engineering, former chair of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technical Advisory Committee, and served more than 36 years in industry in commercialization of new processes for production of chemicals, fuels, and biofuels, and global strategy for the energy transition to a net-zero carbon economy.    He is co-inventor on more than 125 patent applications, has received AIChE / ACS / R&D Magazine awards for Innovation, Service, and Practice, and is co-author of Sustainable Development in the Process Industries:  Cases and Impact (Wiley, 2010).   Dr. Powell obtained a Ph.D. in chemical engineering from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, following a B.S. from the University of VirginiAndy Wilson is an experienced engineer with extensive experience in the energy sector. He obtained his PhD in Nuclear Engineering from The Open University, in the areas of light water reactors, hydrogen production and energy storage . He has since worked for the Civil Service in energy storage and is currently working in the nuclear fusion sector.
