Dr Vaibhav Chaturvedi is a Research Fellow at CEEW. Prior to CEEW, Vaibhav worked as a Post Doctoral Research Associate at the Joint Global Change Research Institute (JGCRI), collaboration between the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, USA and the University of Maryland, College Park, USA. He holds a PhD in Economics from the Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, India and Masters in Forest Management from the Indian Institute of Forest Management Bhopal, India.
His research is focused on Indian and global energy and climate change mitigation policy issues- carbon dioxide emission stabilization pathways, low carbon and sustainable energy policies, modelling energy demand, and water-energy nexus within the integrated assessment modelling framework of the Global Change Assessment Model (GCAM). Vaibhav's recent work includes analyzing nuclear energy scenarios for India, Indian HFC emission scenarios, climate policy-agriculture water interactions, transportation energy scenarios, model evaluation, investment implications for the global electricity sector, and modelling the building sector energy demand scenarios for India. Vaibhav has been actively involved in global model comparison exercises like Asian Modelling Exercise (AME) and Energy Modelling Forum (EMF).
At CEEW, Vaibhav's research focuses on India within the domain of energy and climate policy, mid-range and long-range energy scenarios, HFC emission scenarios, urban energy demand pathways, and energy-water inter relationship. He has been actively publishing in leading international energy and climate policy journals.
