In this new article in @PolicySciences, Rory Hooper, @KornelisBlok, Lisa Scholten, and I propose a semi-automated approach for synthesising policy-relevant evidence using natural language processing, causal mapping, and graph analytics. @TPMTUDelft tinyurl.com/mr46tx22

In this new study in @PLOSONE, @john_m_brandt, M Moroney, @sophiejanaskie, @ecoangelhsu, and I find that higher ambient ozone pollution is associated with lower retail spending, an unaccounted microeconomic cost of air pollution. journals.plos.org/plosone/ar… @TUDelftTPM @WHO
Data-Driven EnviroLab@datadrivenlab2 Feb 2024
Air pollution is the leading environmental killer worldwide; its microeconomic impact, however, is not well understood. In our first pub of 2024, we explore the relationship between consumer spending and ambient air pollution using data from Spain: 🔗journals.plos.org/plosone/ar…

Ambient air pollution and consumer spending: Evidence from Spain

Research on the economic burden of air pollution has focused primarily on its macroeconomic impact. However, as some studies have found that air pollution can lead to avoidance behavior–for example,...

🌡️  ERA5 data from @CopernicusECMWF indicates that 17 November was the first day that the global temperature exceeded 2°C above pre-industrial levels, reaching 2.07°C above the 1850-1900 average and the provisional ERA5 value for 18 November is 2.06°C.

In this new article in @ElsevierEnergy Policy, @namratarc and I examine the effect of a state-level rural electrification policy in India on electricity access using night-time lights and granular implementation data. doi.org/10.1016/j.enpol.2023… @tudelftTBM @tudelftglobal (1/3)

We find that the overall effect of the policy on (night-time) electricity consumption was not substantial. More likely, the policy had a slight re-distributive effect, increasing electricity consumption in some villages (in some districts) while reducing it in others. (2/3)

A reason for the discrepancy between the perceived benefit of the policy and its limited effect on electricity consumption might be the focus of the policy on electricity supply; we recommend more emphasis on demand characteristics and tariff design for realising SDG7. (3/3)

In this new article in @FrontiersIn, @howlettm and I analyse ~7500 articles on energy access through a bibliometric review and computational text analysis; we conclude that the field might be in a 'brown-out' of policy ideas. @tudelftTBM @tudelftglobal journal.frontiersin.org/arti…

We argue three, relatively overlooked, strands from policy studies can add value to this research area: policy process research, policy design studies, and the literature on policy evaluation.

Among other things, this might require (even more) cross-disciplinary effort and scholarly exchange; we call on scholars in energy studies and policy studies to address this gap in the future.
