SUMMARY:A Scientist’s View of Research for Sustainable Energy\, Phys
 ics Department Colloquium\, Ellen Williams\, BP\, Chief Scientist
DESCRIPTION:We face one of the biggest challenges of the 21st century:
  providing more and more energy to meet rising demand\, but keeping it
  affordable\, secure\, reliable and sustainable. But aEuro~sustainable
 aEuroTM means different things to different people aEuro&quot\; from d
 iscovering and recovering more oil and gas to minimizing the impacts o
 n natural resources used in energy. In this talk\, Ellen Williams will
  outline the importance of scientific research to both finding new sol
 utions and providing trusted data to underpin informed decisions about
  energy\, water\, land and minerals. Three examples of research addres
 sing these topics will be presented from a perspective of the scientif
 ic challenges in delivering new value in the energy system. These will
  span the disciplinary space of geoscience\, chemistry\, biology and n
 atural resource systems.<br><br>

\nEllen Williams joined BP
  as Chief Scientist in January 2010. She is responsible for supporting
  the basic science that underpins the companyaEuroTMs technology progr
 ams\, assessment and research in strategic technology issues and engag
 ement with BPaEuroTMs university research programs around the world.<b
