Bennett Institute’s Benjamin Sovacool & Felix Creutzig recognised as a Clarivate globally highly cited researchers
Two professors from the Bennett Institute have been recognised as world-leading researchers after being named as globally highly cited researchers.
The annual list, compiled by global analyst Clarivate Analytics, recognises researchers from across the globe who demonstrated significant influence in their chosen field or fields, reflected through the publication of multiple papers which rank in the top 1% by citations over the last decade.
Professor Felix Creutzig said: “I am deeply honoured to be recognised as a Highly Cited Researcher, a reflection of the incredible collaborations I’ve been privileged to be part of. This milestone is not mine alone – it celebrates the vibrant community of talented researchers from institutions around the globe who inspire and challenge each other to push the boundaries of knowledge. Being part of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has been especially meaningful, as we strive together to address the defining challenges of our time. I’m grateful for this recognition and look forward to continuing the journey with this extraordinary global network.”
Professor Benjamin K. Sovacool said: “In an environment constantly full of well-intentioned academic critique and criticism, it’s always refreshingly nice to be recognized individually. However, no scholar works truly alone, and in this case my inclusion on the highly cited list is only possible given the wonderful grants and projects I can build on. The European Commission and UK Research and Innovation deserve particular acknowledgment for supporting my research repeatedly and significantly. Personally, I am also very pleased that my research is being built upon by others to advance the field or accelerate solutions to climate change, which cuts to the core ethos of what the Bennett Institute for Innovation and Policy Acceleration is all about.”
