Research interests
Climate change is seen as one of the biggest challenges humanity has ever faced. While many sectors have acknowledged this treat and implemented solutions to reduce their climate impacts, the transportation sector is clearly lacking behind. Transportation is about to become one of the major contributors to climate change. With my research I try to find cutting edge solutions on how to mitigate climate change impacts of the transportation sector through market driven approaches and technological innovations.
