Our research concentrates on energy and environmental policy analysis/evaluation, workforce development, tax implications, electricity rate impacts, pollution mitigation, grid reliability and resiliency, business demand for renewables, and many other areas, predominantly focused on distributed and utility-scale solar projects, clean transportation, and green entrepreneurship.

Other areas of interest and expertise include wind energy, energy efficiency, electric vehicles (EVs), energy storage, microgrids, grid modernization, electric utility regulation, energy financing solutions, energy justice and equity, and collaborative stakeholder planning/engagement.

The research group aims to provide solutions to energy and environmental policy challenges, often leveraging partnerships with industry, government, and nonprofit organizations, to conduct studies focused on policy, planning, and electricity infrastructure development.
