I’m a PhD student in economics at the University of New South Wales conducting research in the field of energy economics. Specifically, I am interested in identifying potential barriers to a quick transition of electricity markets toward high shares of variable renewables (wind and solar PV) and exploring how these barriers can be overcome.
