Lisa Woolhouse

Background

Dr Lisa Woolhouse studied economics at London School of Economics and went onto to complete a Masters and PhD in energy economics at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne. She is an "independent consultant" to the energy industry and co-author with Ian Fells of the book "Global Warming: A Guide to Market-based Controls on the Energy Sector," published in 1996.

Pro-Nuke Spinner

Woolhouse is often quoted by the pro-nuclear lobby, for example SONE [1] and Westinghouse

She was one of the speakers at the Nuclear Industry Association's Energy Choices Conference in 2003, along with Key-Note speaker, Stephen Timms, Minister of State for Energy. Wollhouse's view is that "Longer term CO2 goals cannot be met without nuclear" a view the industry obviously wants people to hear. [[2]]
