Maya Papineau

Welcome to my webpage! I am an Associate Professor of Economics at Carleton University, in Ottawa, Canada. My research interests lie at the intersection of environmental economics, energy economics, causal inference and applied econometrics.

A central goal of my research agenda is identifying the most effective and welfare-enhancing approaches for Canada and Canadians to meet decarbonization goals, with a particular focus on the housing sector.

Between 2011 to today, I received over $1 million in grant funding in collaboration with researchers across several disciplines including economics, public policy, mechanical and environmental engineering, chemical engineering, political science, geography, and sociology.

I have been regularly featured in the media as an expert commentator on topics like carbon taxation and green housing.
