My research project
Theory, application and policy of efficiency regulationI have recently completed this collaborative doctoral research with the Centre for Environment and Sustainability (CES) and Surrey Energy Economics Centre (SEEC) on the theory, application and policy of efficiency regulation where I modelled the stochastic cost efficiencies of electricity distribution companies in West Africa as well as investigated the drivers of inefficiencies from both a technical and a political economy perspective.
