All the year's seminars. Abstract: Renewable energy communities involve various agents who decide to jointly invest in renewable production units and storage. This paper examines how these communities interact with the energy system and can decrease its overall cost. First, we show that a renewable energy community can contribute positively to welfare if the electricity produced by the investment is consumed close to its place of production, i. Second, our analysis identifies the condition on prices and grid tariffs to align the community's interest with welfare maximization.
We also show that some of these grid tariffs do not have a negative impact on non-members of the community and could therefore limit potential distributional issues. Third, we argue that variousinternal organization of the renewable energy communities are feasible.
The internal organization impacts the distribution of benefits among members but not the global efficiency of the community. Doctoral students seminar.
Tuesday October 22, from to in C , Marie DAOU will present the entire process leading to qualification to become a teacher-researcher. Abstract Drawing upon data on the entire population of French STEM PhD students, we explore the factors leading PhDs to pursue independent research from their supervisors during the PhD and how independence links to their career outcomes.
We find that independence is significantly associated with students' and supervisors' characteristics. Moreover, students' independence predicts the probability of starting an academic career and, conditional on starting an academic career, a higher number of articles published after the PhD period. However, the higher number of articles comes at the cost of receiving fewer citations and having a lower probability of obtaining an academic position outside France.
