Conceptual Investigations Unit
Improving human welfare.
The Conceptual Investigations Unit is a research consortium developing clear conceptual frameworks, quantitative analyses, and interdisciplinary investigations at the intersection of climate, energy, technology, and society.
Our aim is to provide information that can broadly contribute to improving human welfare while protecting natural ecosystems.
Conceptual clarity
We examine assumptions, definitions, and framing choices that shape research and public understanding.
Quantitative inquiry
We use models, data, and transparent analysis to investigate consequential questions.
Interdisciplinary work
We connect insights across climate science, energy systems, technology, economics, and ethics.
