Description of PhD research project
My research addresses the complexities of household energy transitions by employing empirical economic methodologies, specifically choice experiments and staggered difference-in-differences models. By analyzing these dynamics, my research provides the evidence-based insights necessary to design interdisciplinary policies that foster energy justice and a sustainable future.
