A new peer-reviewed study co-authored by Dávid Csercsik PhD, associate professor at the Faculty of Information Technology and Bionics (ITK), Pázmány Péter Catholic University, has been published in The Energy Journal, one of the leading international journals in energy economics. Dr Csercsik's research focuses on game theory and mechanism design applied to infrastructure systems and markets, particularly electricity and natural gas networks: the exact toolkit behind this paper, which models the strategic bidding behaviour induced by the EU's non-binding gas-purchasing platform.
