The Chair
The LdP Chair focuses on the connected fields of energy economics, law, regulation, geo-politics and energy sources. Taking into account the public opinion we look at the acceptability of EU energy policies, the interrelation between its three cornerstones ‘environmental protection’, ‘liberalisation of markets’ and ‘security of supply’. Moreover, research is carried out in areas such as the EU Emission Trading Scheme, incentive-based regulation in the energy sector, the economics of global governance, institutional settings, market power, retail competition and network investments for the internal energy market. Our mission is to produce the highest quality and in-depth research on European Energy Policy. The Chair’s fields of expertise and close connections to both European and national energy policy ommunities allow us to contribute to debate on policy and practice and to bridge between scholarship and practice in a contemporary Europe characterized by processes of change, questioning and debate.
