I am Chenfei Qu, and I am a Stanford Energy Postdoctoral Fellow, affiliated with the Global Policy Lab in Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability.
I hold a Ph.D. in Energy and Climate Change Economics and a B.S. in Environmental Management, both from Tsinghua University.
My research focuses on the critical issues in the designing of energy, climate and environmental policies, covering topics including carbon emissions trading, renewable energy, air pollution, and international trade. I employ a combination of theoretical analysis and numerical simulations using Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models or Integrated Modeling Frameworks that link energy, economy, and environmental systems. I incorporate crucial real-world factors into these models, including pre-existing taxes, pre-existing distortions, policy interactions, and impacts beyond the economic system, calibrated with empirical data.
