My core research interests lie within the fields of international and national environmental governance, climate and energy policy and environmental justice. I am also interested in nature-based solutions and systems thinking approach to sustainability challenges. Current research areas include wind power and other renewables, deep decarbonisation/low-carbon transition, and EU energy policy.
