Social and technological innovation
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\nSociety constantly innovates, introducing new technologies to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and generate renewable energy. Following the introduction of these technologies on the market, users adopt some of them and adjust their behaviour.<\/p>\n
Therefore, the first part of the research uses models of social and technological innovations. In climate and energy models, researchers examine consumer behaviour and preferences heterogeneity. They identify patterns in the adoption of advanced low-carbon technologies, as well as new business and service models.<\/p>\n
Moreover, economic theories are being developed to explain how agents change their behaviour in response to climate change. Economic models also anticipate future development in renewable energy generation from wind, solar, and biofuels.<\/p>\n
Integrated and hybrid modelling
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\nPolicymakers value having policy-relevant and actionable information about global environmental change. For this purpose, complex economic models provide a quantitative description of the interaction of human and natural processes.<\/p>\n
The second part of the research focuses on integrated and hybrid climate change modelling. For example, integrated assessment modelling combines several socio-ecological models to capitalise on their synergies and complementarities.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, researchers employ general and partial equilibrium models and computable available equilibrium models. One of the anticipated research results concerns the determinants of carbon pricing, which can be helpful for policymakers and acceptable to the public.<\/p>\n
Health and environmental impacts
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\nClimate change, by affecting the environment, also affects populations\u2019 living conditions and health. Hence, the third part looks at health and environmental impact. Among other goals, the research aims to assess the economic and policy consequences of hurricanes, droughts, floods, and other extreme climate change events.<\/p>\n
Also, the research examines the effects on the population\u2019s health by reducing particle emissions and introducing renewable energy. It considers the option for people to adopt alternative lifestyles for transport and diet, which reduces individuals\u2019 environmental impact. One of the most complex issues relates to the links between energy, water, and food with the generation of energy out of biomass.<\/p>\n
Institutions and economic development
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\nRegional, national, and international institutions have different scopes of action to manage climate change and facilitate the energy transition. Therefore, the final part of the research analyses each of these layers of political and economic institutions.<\/p>\n
While observing the international policy arena, the research scrutinises multilateral environmental negotiations, particularly during the bi-yearly United Nations Climate Change Conferences. The analysis includes developing countries, whose emissions are primarily responsible for climate change, and developing countries, particularly for their increasing role in shaping international policies.<\/p>\n
At the national level, researchers aim, among other things, to better understand the acceptability of climate change and energy policies by the public. And they consider the macroeconomic consequences of policies on business and investment. At the firm\u2019s level, they look at the risk management and mitigation strategies they adopt to face climate change.<\/p>\n
