Position Summary:
The Duke University Sanford School of Public Policy has an opening for a postdoctoral research position in the area of energy and development, focusing on the impacts of investments in energy access and electricity reliability, broadly defined, and in just energy transitions in coal-dependent LMIC regions. The position is funded and has a one-year initial appointment, with possibility of renewal in future years.

The position entails work to support and lead certain aspects of the research portfolio of the James E. Rogers Energy Access Project (EAP) at the Nicholas Institute & Energy Initiative. The role will support impact evaluation work on energy sector investments, emerging work on electricity reliability incentives and impacts, and just energy transition. In addition to this, the successful candidate will be expected to develop their own active research portfolio, especially as it provides complementary synergies with other EAP activities and themes. More information on the EAP is available at https://energyaccess.duke.edu/.

The scholar selected for this position will work closely with EAP faculty (including Profs. Marc Jeuland and Robyn Meeks) and with co-director Jonathan Phillips, as well as other members of the team.
