His research challenges conventional narratives about decarbonization pathways and examines the power dynamics shaping sustainability transitions in heavy industries.
His publication record shows a consistent focus on the intersection of political economy and environmental sustainability. The most recent articles demonstrate an increasing focus on corporate climate strategies, petrochemical industry transitions, and critical assessments of green growth narratives. His work has gained significant attention with citations across multiple platforms, news outlets, and policy discussions.
