Projects

1. Evaluating Renewable Energy Policies in the Post–Kyoto Protocol Era (Master’s Thesis)

Overview
Analyzed the impact of five renewable energy policies on:

  • Growth in renewable energy adoption
  • Reduction in CO₂ emissions

Compared outcomes before and after the Kyoto Protocol, using panel data for 60 countries from 2000–2020.

Data Sources

Data processing performed in R using dplyr and tidyr.

Methodology

  • Approach: Difference-in-Differences (DiD)
  • Model: Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression
  • Controls: 10 socioeconomic variables
  • Validation: Extensive robustness tests on panel microeconomic data

Key Findings

Impact Area Positive Policy Impact Negative/No Impact
Renewable Energy Share Feed-in Tariffs, Tradable Green Certificates (TGC), Tax Rebates Subsidies, Auction-based Tenders
CO₂ Emissions Reduction Subsidies, Auction-based Tenders, TGC Feed-in Tariffs, Tax Rebates (no significant effect)
