Lynette is an Advance Queensland Research Fellow. Her fellowship seeks to understand the sensitivity of the Queensland economy to a dual energy shock, in the form of increased costs for industry accompanied by reduced revenue for energy miners as a result of global pressure to reduce carbon emissions. Previously Lynette conducted research with the Global Change Institute including investigating the feasibility of using Galilee Basin coal for energy poverty reduction in India and being the researcher for the Global Change Institute’s Competitive Power Paper series. Prior to her work with the Global Change Institute Lynette researched alternative systems for carbon abatement with particular emphasis on incentives for investment in abatement technologies.
