Hi, The Climate Solutions Lab at Brown University is searching for a 2-year postdoc. Great job: no teaching responsibilities, good pay, lots of like-minded colleagues, and remote work is possible for the 2024-25 year. Political science preferred but open to any social science. Application deadline is: January 15, 2024.
Application here. <https://apply.interfolio.com/135472> We seek a scholar to help us address the political economy of the clean energy transition, especially but not necessarily the politics of electricity and electrification. The postdoc could help research topics such as: how climate change affects electrical grids in the United States, Europe, India, or elsewhere; how states and market actors can work together to finance decarbonization; the industrial organization of renewable energy providers; policy instruments for electric vehicles or other transportation modalities; electrical grid stability in an age of climate change; the social & racial justice dimensions of power outages or disconnections; and carbon border adjustment mechanisms or supply chain challenges. Ability to conduct and write policy-oriented research, as well as academic research, is essential. There are no teaching responsibilities. The selected candidate will devote 50 percent time to projects at the Climate Solutions Lab, under the supervision of Professor Jeff Colgan, and 50 percent time to his or her own (climate-related) research projects. The Watson Institute is especially interested in qualified candidates who can contribute, through their research, teaching, and/or service, to the diversity and excellence of the academic community.
