Ramakrishnan, Anjali

Anjali Ramakrishnan is a Researcher in the project on Inclusive Green Transitions for Sustainable Development in the Global South, based at the EfD Global Hub.

Previously, her research focused on examining social status as a demand-side factor for consumption choices of urban Indian households and understanding its implications for climate change mitigation targets. She used large household datasets and primary survey data to establish a link between status and consumption patterns and practices using econometrics methods.

Her research interests include energy economics and policy, households' energy transitions, demand-side research using empirical economic analysis, and reconciling science-policy nexus.
