About
Find a full CV on my personal site.
I am full Professor at the Department of Industrial Economics and Technology at NTNU, Adjunct Professor at NHH Bergen, and MIT-CEEPR Affiliate. My research interest is in industrial organization, regulation and competition in energy and resource markets applying mainly empirical methods. In 2026 I am the Conference Chair for the 22nd International Conference on the European Energy Market (EEM26).
I have served (and continue to serve) as reviewer for the NRC, Academy of Finland, DFG, Humboldt Foundation, and several peer-reviewed journals. As an economist by training I received my PhD from Technische Universität Dresden (Germany) and held professorships in Potsdam, Chemnitz and NHH Bergen before joining NTNU as full professor.
