Professor, Director of Research 'NTNU Energy Transition Initiative'
Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management Faculty of Economics and ManagementBackground and activities
My research interest is in industrial organization, regulation and competition in energy and resource markets applying mainly empirical methods. I am active in the research centers FME Mozees, FME NTRANS, FME ZEN and am the Director of Research within the 'Energy Transition Initiative' at NTNU. In addition, 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 Universïtät Dresden (Germany) and held professorships in Potsdam, Chemnitz and NHH Bergen before joining NTNU as full professor.
