Shashi's research primarily focuses on regulating climate change mitigation measures and is currently centred on the regulation of energy transitional technologies, particularly in the Global South. In his research, he utilises the legal transplant method of comparative law to contextualise climate law based on the peculiar socioeconomic needs of the Global South.
His research interest lies at the intersection of law and technology, specifically examining how differences in the structure of legal systems influence the classification of specific sets of technologies as climate-friendly or transitional.
