PhD Summer School on the Economics of Climate Change and Energy Transition
The EAERE Supported Event PhD Summer School on the Economics of Climate Change and Energy Transition will be held at Lancaster University Management School, in Bailrigg, Lancaster (UK), on June 4-6, 2025.
About the Summer School
The aim of the Summer School is to provide an overview of cutting-edge economics research on climate change and energy transition issues, and to offer opportunities to PhD students for interactions and discussions with experts in the field.
Keynote Lectures
The Keynote Lectures will be given by Professor Valeria Costantini (University of Roma Tre) and Professor Stefan Ambec (Toulouse School of Economics, INRAE, University of Toulouse Capitole).
Prof. Valeria Costantini will explore the challenges of transitioning to sustainable development, examining climate change’s intersection with socioeconomic factors, migration, and inequality, and evaluate policy responses ranging from international agreements to the EU’s green energy initiatives and carbon adjustment mechanisms. Prof. Stefan Ambec will introduce students to the research frontier on the design of public policies and electricity markets for the transition to a low carbon economy.
