This paper provides evidence of the impact of grid expansion on long-term investment in wind energy. The resulting benefits include decreased emissions from fossil fuel sector and increased lease payments to landowners.

Electricity grid expansion is a key policy tool to accelerate the transition to green energy and lower carbon emissions. I study the impact of grid expansion on market power and emissions from the fossil fuel industry in the short-run.

We study whether competition in electricity markets affects the adoption of frontier technology in the wind and solar industries.

We study whether electricity transmission expansion lowers the cost of hedging risk in wholesale electricity markets. This paper is published in The Energy Journal.

We use dynamic panel data methods to study the phenomenon of substitution and complementarity in psychoactive substances, from historical data from Bengal, India in 1911-1925. (under review!)
