I'm Maximiliano, a PhD candidate at the Paris School of Economics and a PhD Fellow at the French Ministry for the Ecological Transition. I study who pays for the climate transition, and how to make it fair.

My research looks at the distributional effects of climate and energy policy: how measures like the EU Emissions Trading System for buildings and transport (ETS2) reach households across incomes and regions, using microsimulation and general-equilibrium models. I am currently building a map of environmental inequality in France from micro-level data, tracking how exposure to climate shocks and energy costs varies by income and geography.

I work under the supervision of Lucas Chancel, Katheline Schubert and Mouez Fodha. I was previously an economist at the Banco de España, working on policy simulations and inflation forecasting, and before that advised the Spanish Economic and Social Council on labour-market policy.

I am also the founder and president of Estrellas del Sur, a non-profit (NGO) in Córdoba that since 2020 has run Erasmus+ projects, mentoring and scholarship support for young people from disadvantaged backgrounds, opening routes to education and opportunities abroad.

Because where you're born shouldn't determine how far you go.
