Research

My research lines bring together multidisciplinary research in environmental economics, innovation policy and energy economics in green and energy efficiency technologies, with a focus on the evaluation policy instruments enabling the transition to low-carbon economies. I have a strong background on statistical and quantitative methods of analysis and econometric techniques that has served me to publish several articles in world-class journals such as Nature Climate Change, Technological and Economic Development of the Economy, Energy Policy or Business Strategy and the Environment, among others.

I have participated in several international projects on renewable energy support schemes in the EU, the UK as well as in a range of Spanish funded projects. I am currently the Empirical Evaluation Leader of the Economics of Energy Innovation and System Transitions (EEIST) project funded by the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy of the UK Government. As part of my work on the project Innovation Pathways for a Low-carbon Transition (INNOPATHS), funded in the EC’s Horizon2020 framework, I led the design of an online Decarbonsation Policy Evaluation Tool intended to be a helpful reference for policy makers and academics as it allows them to foresee possible trade-offs and co-benefits in environmental policy.
