Edouard Civel – Climate Economist

I am a senior researcher at the EDHEC Climate Institute (EDHEC Business School). My research examines how the climate transition reshapes the economy, from shifts in consumption and investment to the repricing of assets. Recent work covers both dimensions of climate risk, including carbon pricing, energy labels, regulatory bans and natural hazards.

I am also a research affiliate of the Climate Economics Chair (Paris-Dauphine University). I have taught environmental economics across business, policy and engineering programmes, including HEC Paris, Sciences Po Paris and IMT Atlantique.

Before joining EDHEC, I was a post-doctoral researcher at École Polytechnique and a research consultant at Square Management. Trained as an engineer at ESPCI Paris, I hold a research master’s from Paris-Dauphine and a PhD in economics from Paris-Nanterre.

From 2020 to 2026, I served as First Deputy Mayor of the 5th arrondissement of Paris, in charge of urban ecology.
