Post‐Doctoral Research: Design and Experimentation on Electricity Consumption to Induce Flexibility

Affiliated Laboratory: GAEL
Context
The post‐doctoral researcher will benefit from a stimulating and dynamic environment and will
be included in the consumption axis of the GAEL laboratory, particularly within the
experimental platform. Additionally, they will be integrated into the FlexTase project. The
FlexTase project is funded under the PEPR TASE (Advanced Technologies for Energy Systems).
Mission:
The mission will focus on setting up laboratory and field experiments, as well as analyzing and
disseminating the results. The research conducted in this post‐doc will address residential
electricity consumption and aim to develop and test tariff and non‐tariff incentives to make
demand more flexible. Candidates should have either an experimental economics background
with experience in setting up experiments involving nudges or a background in public policy
evaluation with knowledge and application of evaluation econometrics methods. Research
themes related to energy or the environment would be a plus.
