Wojciech Lipiński is a professor at the Energy, Environment and Water Research Centre of the Cyprus Institute. He received his master's degree in Environmental Engineering from Warsaw University of Technology in 2000, doctorate in Mechanical and Process Engineering from ETH Zurich in 2004, and habilitation in Energy Technology from ETH Zurich in 2009. He previously held academic positions at ETH Zurich (2004–2009), the University of Minnesota (2009–2013), and the Australian National University (2013–2021).
Prof. Lipiński's research interests encompass the optical, thermal, and chemical aspects of solar energy science and technology. His core studies explore transport and reactive flow phenomena in multiphase systems, with a focus on radiative transfer and high-temperature solid–gas reactions. Prof. Lipiński's contributions primarily underpin advances in solar thermochemistry for production of fuels, energy-intensive processing of materials, thermal energy storage, and environmental separations.
Prof. Lipiński is a member of the editorial boards for Solar Energy and the Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer. He is involved in several professional organisations, including the International Centre for Heat and Mass Transfer, the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, and the Eurotherm Committee. Prof. Lipiński is a recipient of the Elsevier/JQSRT Raymond Viskanta Award (2013) and the ASME Yellott Award (2020). He became a fellow of the ASME in 2021.
