Why I research and study Energy Economics

Energy is arguably the largest industry in the world and the most important one for our economies and societies to prosper. Th energy sector is changing at a fast pace, and economic research can have a positive impact on this transformation at many levels. 

My research in energy economics focuses on key economic, environmental, resource, societal, and policy aspects of how we produce, transport, and distribute, and consume our energy.
