Fells is a long-standing advocate of nuclear power.[4] As of 2008, Fells was of the view that "any notion that renewables can provide for all our [energy] requirements is a mischievous and reckless boast".[5] HonoursIn 1976 Fells was awarded the Beilby Medal and Prize.[6] He was then elected Fellow[1] of The Royal Academy of Engineering[1] in 1979 and was President of The Institute of Energy (now the Energy Institute) for 1978-79.

He was awarded the Melchett Medal of the Energy Institute in 1999 and the John Collier Medal of the Institution of Chemical Engineers in the same year. He was awarded a CBE in June 2000.[7] In the same year he presented the Higginson Lecture.[8] Other activitiesFells has made over 500 television and radio programmes, including the TV popular science series Take Nobody's Word For It with Carol Vorderman, and appeared as guest expert on The Great Egg Race in 1985.[9] He has been science adviser to the World Energy Council and special adviser to select committees of both the House of Lords and the House of Commons as well as serving on several Cabinet and Research Council committees. He was chairman of the UK-based National Renewable Energy Centre (Narec)[10] and is an energy adviser to the European Union and European Parliament, has advised a number of Foreign Governments on energy policy and is a consultant to various multi-national companies.
