Istituto
di Economia delle Fonti di Energia - Università Commerciale “L.Bocconi” Web: http://www.iefe.uni-bocconi.it GOUVERNe Project Partner No. 5  Created
in 1957, IEFE initially concentrated its research activity on energy policy,
with a focus on natural resource economics, technological development,
industrial economics and public utility regulation. The evident
links of these topics to environmental issues resulted, over the past
15 years, in the complementary development of environmental studies.
The research activity of IEFE is by declaration policy-oriented, and very
often conducted in strong cooperation with institutional actors, professional
associations and industrial actors. In the environmental sector,
the main areas of activity can be divided into four categories:
IEFE is held by a Directive Board where
a wide number of representants of institution, interest groups and industry
in the environmental, energy and hi-tech industries are represented. These
external actors contribute financially to the budget of the Institute
and play a role in the setting of research agendas. Most research is done
under contracts with institutional actors and industry, very often with
a multi-client approach. This approach, that represents a typical feature
of IEFE’s projects, has guaranteed during time a well-recognized autonomy
and authoritativeness within the policy community.
The Director is Prof. Sergio Vaccà. The responsible person for the Environment Division is Prof. Giorgio Giorgetti. Nearly 12 researchers are permanently occupied in activities concerning the environment. In particular, Antonio Massarutto, Michele Fontana, Giulia Pesaro and Paola Amadei have been involved or are currently involved in projects regarding water resources. |
