Organization

GreenREFORM started as a research project at the University of Copenhagen and Aarhus University in 2017. The project has since been expanded with a model group in the DREAM group.

The development of GreenREFORM is formally divided into a research project, which finances a research group comprised of researchers from the University of Copenhagen and Aarhus University, and a project funded by a grant from the Ministry of Finance in 2019, which finances a permanent model group in the DREAM group. There is close cooperation between the two groups, making the distinction is less meaningful in practice.

The project group comprised of 15-20 people, depending on how they are counted. There are four fulltime economists and four research assistants on the project in the DREAM group, but the project also takes advantage of modelling expertise from other parts of the DREAM group. At the University of Copenhagen and Aarhus University, Professor Peter Birch Sørensen leads a research group of six PhD-students and an adjunct professor, who work on sector specific sub-models.

The project group is organized in working groups across the model group and the research group with responsibility for developing the respective sub-models and integrating them with the general equilibrium model. This website includes sections for each working group, where the development of the respective sub-models can be followed. The research project has an Advisory Board as also presented below.

Research Group

The following table gives an overview of the research group.

Model Group

There are eight permanent members of the model group. After the research director of the DREAM group, these are the first eight names listed in the table below. In practice, a number of other members of the DREAM group also contribute to the project to varying degrees. The members who are currently included in working groups are also listed below.
