Gauthier's research centers on energy finance, geopolitical energy dynamics, and regulatory frameworks. He examines global energy supply-demand imbalances, corporate strategies in energy transitions, and sustainable investment practices, with particular focus on the shift from fossil fuels to renewables and associated greenwashing risks in corporate reporting.
His publication trajectory reveals evolving expertise from foundational 2009 analyses of global energy geo-economics to contemporary 2023 investigations of renewable transition challenges. The recent case study on Total critically assesses corporate sustainability claims, while earlier work established frameworks for understanding geopolitical shifts in energy markets.
