Biography
Lavinia is an economist and econometric modeller working on energy transitions research using regional and spatial data analysis to support strategic decisions. For example, recent project assignments have covered solar, wind, hydrogen or transmission lines' research. My areas of focus include the regional development and regional prosperity implications of energy/primary industries (e.g. employment, regional product analysis); metrics and indicators for tracking success across policies implementation; strategic foresighting and scenarios projections development; consumer level analysis of energy use, access to renewables and energy hardship / inequity analysis. In addition to econometrics, I have a background in spatial (GIS) analysis and programming.
