Personal profile

Artistic and research interests

My research is applied microeconomics with strong focus on energy markets. In addition, I have intrest in market structures, market performance and regulation. I have a PhD from the application of mathematical finance to the Nordic electricity markets. Adjunct to my academic interests I have worked in the energy industry.

My current focus is on three themes related to the ongoing energy transi-tion. First, what is the impact of renewable energy to electricity markets, especially how wind power affects hydro dominated Nordic market. Second, given the market impacts, how will incumbent utilities react, nuclear power in Sweden in particular. Third, what are the economic viabilities and distributional impacts of demand side technologies, such as demand response and battery storage.
