I am Chenfei Qu, and I am a Stanford Energy Postdoctoral Fellow, affiliated with the Global Policy Lab and eSET in Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability. I gratefully acknowledge support from the Stanford Energy Postdoctoral Fellowship.
I hold a Ph.D. in Energy and Climate Change Economics and a B.S. in Environmental Management, both from Tsinghua University.
My research studies the design of energy, climate, and environmental policy under institutional and political-economy constraints and in the presence of complex cross-system interactions—as such policies are actually made in the real world, rather than as the first-best instruments that theory assumes them to be.
My work has appeared or is forthcoming in general-interest economics, environmental economics, and multidisciplinary journals, including the American Economic Journal: Economic Policy, Environmental Science & Technology, Climate Change Economics, and Advances in Climate Change Research; one paper has a revise-and-resubmit at the Journal of the Association of Environmental and Resource Economists.
