Our Research
Rigorous, interdisciplinary research powering actionable policy insights at the intersection of AI, economics, and climate.
Climate Economics Modeling
AI-enhanced integrated assessment models for climate-economy interactions. We're developing next-generation models that capture tipping points, feedback loops, and regional variations with unprecedented accuracy.
Key Questions
- → How do we model tipping points in coupled climate-economic systems?
- → What are the true costs of inaction across different scenarios?
- → How can AI improve uncertainty quantification in IAMs?
Energy & Infrastructure
Economic frameworks for grid modernization and renewable deployment optimization. We analyze market structures, pricing mechanisms, and investment incentives that accelerate the clean energy transition.
Key Questions
- → How do we price grid flexibility in markets with high renewable penetration?
- → What market designs accelerate storage deployment?
- → How can AI optimize transmission planning?
Biodiversity Valuation
Natural capital accounting and ecosystem services market mechanisms. We develop frameworks for valuing nature in economic terms and designing markets that incentivize conservation.
Key Questions
- → How do we value intact ecosystems in economic terms?
- → Can AI improve MRV for nature-based credits?
- → What market mechanisms drive conservation at scale?
Labor & Workforce
Just transition economics ensuring climate action benefits all communities. We analyze workforce impacts and design policies that support workers and regions through the transition.
Key Questions
- → Which workers and communities are most exposed to transition risk?
- → What retraining investments have the highest ROI?
- → How do we design place-based transition policies?
Policy & Markets
AI-optimized carbon pricing, green finance instruments, and regulatory frameworks. We design policy mechanisms that harness market forces to accelerate decarbonization.
Key Questions
- → What's the optimal carbon price path under uncertainty?
- → How do we design effective carbon border adjustments?
- → What regulatory frameworks enable sustainable AI development?
