About me

Hi! I am a senior scientist interested in energy, climate change, society, economics and uncertainty.

My values are Excellence, Integrity and Kindness.

My mission as a senior researcher in environment and development is to help people and groups grow up to make the world a better place.

I founded the Vietnam Initiative for the Energy Transition (VIET) quasi-independent think tank in August 2018.

I founded the Clean Energy and Sustainable Development lab (CleanED) at the University of Science and Technology of Hanoi (USTH) in December 2014.

I was lead author on Assessment Report 4 and 5 of the IPCC, co-awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace in 2007.

My PhD was on integrated assessment and irreversibility of energy/climate policy. I argued that if we did not act strong and early, then by 2020 it would be too late to avoid dangerous climate change. Unfortunately I think that was right 😢

My HDR thesis was about imprecise probabilities, especially using possibility theory for scenario-making and the Transferable Belief Model for expert opinion fusion, with applications to environmental and energy economics.
