Description

Bocconi University invites applicants for an Early-Stage Researcher (ESR) fellowship on “Identifying enablers and barriers to foster the replicability of business models for Green Energy Systems” in the context of the SMARTGYsum project within the Marie Sklodowska-Curie programme (Innovative Training Networks). ESR will develop their activity at Bocconi University in Milan at GREEN research center - Centre for Research on Geography, Resources, Environment, Energy & Networks.

In the context of the project, applicants may also apply for a PhD in Economics and enterprise at University of Extremadura (UEX), Badajoz, Spain. PhD fees are covered by Bocconi University for the three years PhD programme. UEX is responsible for PhD candidate selection and enrolment procedures. Further information about UEX PhD programme is available at the following link https://www.unex.es/organizacion/serviciosuniversitarios/servicios/doctorado/funciones/tercer_ciclo/fichas-pd-rd-99-11- 1/programa-de-doctorado-en-economia-y-empresa

The research aims to identify and assess relevant enabling and hindering factors influencing the diffusion of innovative business models related to sustainable power energy systems and energy transition in the EU. Different dimensions and factors will be considered, e.g. regulatory systems, socio-economic contexts, market maturity and market trends, consumption behaviours and patterns, energy and climate policies. The expected result consists in providing a roadmap to foster business model replicability related to technologies developed along the project across different EU countries.
