XAVIER LABANDEIRA AND CARLOS DE MIGUEL PARTICIPATE IN THE 8th ATLANTIC WORKSHOP ON ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL ECONOMICS (AWEEE)
On the 21st and 22nd of June, the 8th Atlantic Workshop on Energy and Environmental Economics(AWEEE) took place on the island of A Toxa, in the Northwestern Spanish area of Galicia. It is a biennial scientific meeting born in 2004, organized by Economics for Energy with the collaboration of CEPE (ETH Zurich) and the University of Münster (CAWM) and the support of ECOBAS. The workshop has become an important outlet for the discussion and debate on state-of-the-art research on energy and environmental issues, with a limited number of participants who come from all around the world. The AWEEE combines keynote lectures on specific topics by prestigious academics with the presentation of research by invited speakers and by other participants, including a poster session, through an open call for papers.
In this edition, the AWEEE had the collaboration of the REDE group in its Committee through the participation of two of its members, the researchers Xavier Labandeira and Carlos de Miguel. The workshop included keynote lectures by Christiane Baumeister (University of Notre Dame) and Don Fullerton (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) and invited presentations by Kathy Baylis (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign), Sébastien Houde (University of Maryland), Juan-Pablo Montero (PUC Chile), Katrin Rehdanz (University of Kiel), and Katheline Schubert (University of Paris 1) and paper discussions where Xavier Labandeira and Carlos de Miguel (University of Vigo) also participated, among others.
