Primary research areas

Market Design and Industrial Organization

I study how market rules, competition and firms’ strategic decisions shape prices, investment and economic outcomes, with a particular focus on regulated markets.

Environmental and Energy Economics

My research examines how environmental policies and energy market institutions affect incentives, efficiency, investment and the distribution of costs and benefits.

Regulation and Consumer Behaviour

I investigate how pricing schemes, contracts and regulatory interventions influence consumer choices, firms’ behaviour and market performance.

Designing markets and policies that improve economic outcomes

I am an Assistant Professor in Environmental and Energy Economics at Copenhagen Business School and the Copenhagen School of Energy Infrastructure. My research lies at the intersection of industrial organization, market design and applied microeconomic theory. I study how markets and institutions shape the decisions of firms and consumers, and how regulation can improve economic outcomes. A central theme of my work is the design of pricing mechanisms and contracts, including their effects on competition, investment incentives and consumer behaviour. I am particularly interested in markets where public policy and private incentives interact. Much of my research applies these questions to energy and environmental policy, using economic models to examine market efficiency, the distribution of costs and the transition towards cleaner technologies. Before joining CBS, I was a postdoctoral researcher at Aalto University. I received my PhD in Economics from Paris Dauphine University.
