A spatial framework for levelled-up and low-carbon Industrial clusters
-
The talk proposed a spatially explicit modeling framework that quantifies the socio-economic impacts associated with decarbonizing the industrial sectors and accounts for region-specific features, such as the industrial specialization of regions, their relative size, and their economic interdependencies. The framework applies to a case study that uses low carbon hydrogen to decarbonize the energy-intensive industries in Europe and in the UK. The results demonstrated that interregional economic interdependencies drive the overall economic benefits of decarbonization. Policies intended to concurrently transition to net zero and address existing regional imbalances should take these local factors into account.
The Near-Far Problem: Surviving Climate Change, Future of Humanity Summit
-
Hosted in partnership with the Global Policy Journal and the LSE Alumni Association, the panel discussed the key societal changes, policy measures, and technical interventions that can contribute to tackling climate change in the near term. I elaborated on how social science can inform engineering models towards the identification of a fair and just transition to a low-carbon future.

Accounting for the social dimension in planning the transition
-
The net-zero transition requires unprecedented changes to our society and energy system. Energy systems modelling enables to compare different decarbonization pathways, but do models reflect actual social feasibility and acceptability? This webinar discussed how net energy systems modelling can better account for the social dimension in planning for a net zero future. During the session I presented some of the key findings of my work on socially equitable energy systems transitions.
