København S
The Center for International Law and Governance (CILG), forthcoming Center for Climate Change Law and Governance (CLIMA) in January 2024 at the Faculty of Law of the University of Copenhagen, is seeking applicants for two postdoctoral positions in climate and energy law.
The positions are part of two interdisciplinary research projects:
The positions are available from 1 February 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter.
About the projects
To achieve the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and address the climate emergency by securing the 1.5°C temperature goal set by the Paris Agreement, it is imperative that the shift from fossil-based energy production and consumption to renewable energy sources happens in the next few years. However, achieving this shift is not only a matter of hard science breakthroughs, but also of advancing policy paths and legal frameworks to deploy the available GHG emissions control knowledge and technologies at the speed and scale required to avoid the worst impacts of climate change.
DART – The Danish Government has decided to quadruple the production of renewable energy by 2030. While a vast majority of the Danish population support the renewable energy transition, municipalities and developers still experience substantial skepticism and widespread concern from local citizens and interest groups when wind turbines, solar parks and PtX plants are to be implemented in local sites and communities. The skepticism and concern often turn into local resistance and concrete conflicts, leading to a number of challenges at the global scale, national scale, corporate scale and civil society scale. We are seeking a postdoctoral researcher for Work Package three of the project, entitled: A regulatory framework for enhancing citizen engagement in RES. The primary target is to assess the current legal framework for citizen engagement in the development of RES in Denmark, and put forward potential avenues and tools for improving and enhancing citizens’ engagement. This includes incentives for companies, public authorities and civil society to enter into renewable energy partnerships, thus mitigating the risk of costly and time-consuming conflicts. The project envisions a review of the Danish legal framework, and relevant international and EU legislation, and map best practices of key existing legal frameworks in selected countries for citizen engagement and an interview round with relevant political stakeholders and experts from universities and independent think tanks. The duration of the project is two years.
RIGHydro – The project entitled: Regulatory Innovation to Incentivize Green Hydrogen aims to contribute to the deployment of green hydrogen as a key component of the green transition in Denmark, the EU and beyond. Through a comprehensive understanding and analysis of the latest regulatory developments, the project will point out how to enable, from a legal and institutional perspective, the deployment of green hydrogen in Denmark. The project aims to contribute to the planning of a green hydrogen infrastructure by tackling regulatory, implementation and institutional barriers, support the design of financial incentives for the production and commercialization of green hydrogen, and propose ways in which to increase green hydrogen’s social acceptance, including consumers-centered solutions. The duration of the project is 21 months.
About the positions
We are seeking two enthusiastic and outstanding post-doctoral candidates, one for each of the projects described above, with a strong interest in energy and climate change law. The ideal candidate must hold a relevant academic degree (in law or in another social science discipline, provided the applicant can also document sufficient knowledge in law), and possess the appropriate theoretical and methodological tools to carry out the research. Crucially, the successful candidate will have the ability to work in a collaborative environment both independently and as part of the team.
The postdocs will be part the larger research team at CILG ( https://jura.ku.dk/cilg/), which carries out research on climate change and sustainability. The center offers a nurturing, lively and expanding research environment that has developed frameworks that enable researchers to receive feedback on their ongoing work and interact with other researchers in their field.
Applicants are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the faculty’s research areas and education programmes by visiting the Faculty’s website: www.jura.ku.dk.
The Faculty actively supports the effort to learn Danish.
Required qualifications

In the overall assessment, emphasis will be placed on the applicant’s research and teaching potential. Special emphasis will be placed on the applicant’s ambition to develop and implement new research ideas, which may have an international impact. Furthermore, the Faculty places emphasis on the applicant’s interest and preferably, prior experience, in working with other researchers to conduct collective research and teaching activities and welcomes the applicant’s proven ability to make a valuable contribution in this regard.
Salary and terms of employment
