His research addresses critical climate challenges, including carbon taxation, R&D's role in decarbonization, and institutional constraints on net-zero pathways. Key publications focus on green hydrogen resilience, fossil extraction bans, and multimodel analyses of optimal temperature targets.

He has held academic/research roles at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Public Research Center Tudor (Luxembourg), and Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (FEEM) before joining CMCC.
