United Kingdom

The British Institute of Energy Economics (BIEE) is the leading professional association for energy economics and related disciplines in the UK .

The UK is at the leading edge of many energy-related issues. It is home to some of the world’s largest and most innovative companies and financial institutions involved in providing and financing energy. UK government policy in energy and climate change has many innovative aspects, (e.g., the Committee on Climate Change) and UK academic research on energy issues has a high international profile.

With a history spanning more than 30 years, BIEE has established itself as a unique link between academia, the private sector and policy makers in the energy sector and has a diverse membership drawn from these professional communities, as well as students in full-time education.

The role of the BIEE is to bring together these diverse stakeholders in order to facilitate and promote research, discussion and debate on key energy issues. To fulfil this role the BIEE has a programme of meetings, seminars and conferences held primarily in London, Oxford and Scotland. BIEE events are distinguished by the high calibre of their speakers, the sound, evidence-based content of presentations/papers, diversity of participants from different sectors and open discussion and debate.

The BIEE was established as a company limited by guarantee in 1980 and became a registered charity in 1985. It is governed by its Council of voluntary officers elected by the members. The BIEE is the UK representative of the International Association of Energy Economics (IAEE), which has over 3000 members and a growing network of country affiliates and representatives.
