Paolo Mastropietro is a research professor at the Instituto de Investigación Tecnológica (IIT) of the Universidad Pontificia Comillas in Madrid. He is an environmental engineer specialising in energy and sustainability; he obtained his master’s degree in 2009 from the Università di Roma Tor Vergata and his PhD in 2016 from Universidad Pontificia Comillas, TU Delft and KTH (Erasmus Mundus PhD in Sustainable Energy Technologies and Strategies), with a thesis on the design of capacity remuneration mechanisms.He has worked in the private sector in both Italy and Spain and in 2011 was selected for the United Nations Volunteers (UNV) programme and worked as a Project Officer in the Addis Ababa office of UNEP (United Nations Environment Programme). Paolo joined the IIT in September 2012. Since then, he has participated in more than 40 research and consulting projects on energy economics and policy and has published more than 30 scientific articles. Paolo has advised governments, regulators, private companies, associations and international institutions such as the World Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank on projects in more than 20 countries. His scientific publications have almost 1000 citations, according to the Google Scholar platform. He participates in review activities for more than 10 scientific journals and frequently acts as an evaluator of project proposals for the European Commission.

Areas of interest:

Energy economics and policy; power sector regulation; security of supply; capacity remuneration mechanisms; integration of renewable energies; tariff and subsidy design; support mechanism design; hydrogen sector regulation.
