Dec 2021
Caspar is a PhD Researcher at the University of California, Davis, and University of Southampton, UK. His PhD explores the environmental and social implications of the negative emission technology Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS). His work is a part of the ADVENT (Addressing Valuation of Energy and Nature Together) project and is funded through a NERC studentship. Caspar uses environmental economic and quantitative methods to explore trade-offs and co-benefits of BECCS across locations and scales, as well as to explore what a sustainable BECCS deployment may look like. His PhD has taken him from England to California, where he spends his free time enjoying the sunny climate.
