"Economics of Energy & Environmental Policy" (EEEP), established as an IAEE publication in 2011, is policy oriented. It focuses on all policy issues in the interface between energy and environmental economics. EEEP provides a research-based, scholarly, yet easily read and accessible source of information on contemporary economic thinking and analysis of energy and environmental policy. Its editors are Jean-Michel Glachant (European University Institute in Florence, Italy), Paul Joskow (Sloan Foundation) and Michael Pollitt (Cambridge University). The editors strive to publish a blend of policy papers and notes, organized symposia on specific policy issues, feature articles, book reviews and commentaries on current energy and environmental policy. The Journal wants to nurture a dialogue between academics, business and public authorities. It covers policy issues worldwide.
