Background
Dr
Simon Lambert is a senior lecturer in the Electrical Power Group, School of
Engineering at Newcastle University (UK). He has over 14 years' experience
researching energy systems integration, battery management & integration
and battery degradation & quality control analysis. Prior to joining the
academic team he worked on numerous national and international collaborative
research projects with several EV OEMs in the area of battery science
(specifically health and condition monitoring) and has a recent research
project portfolio (since 2015) covering 15 projects with total award value to
Newcastle University of over £5.9M. He is currently leading the test and
dismantling work stream for the Faraday Institution's flagship Recycling of
Lithium Ion Batteries (ReLiB) project and has also led battery testing and
characterisation workstreams in projects with the FP7 & the APC.
