About

Our research explores the effectiveness of climate policy instruments, how policies and new technologies can be implemented, and how managing climate change can be balanced with other societal concerns.

We employ a wide suite of methods, including general equilibrium models, surveys, lab and field experiments and econometric techniques.

Many of our projects relate to Norwegian climate policy within the power sector, oil and gas, transportation and agriculture. We also conduct research on climate policy in large emerging economies such as China.
