Research opportunities
Chikage has been working in the area of aviation and the environment in particular, the impact of economic instruments such as EU Emission Trading Scheme, Carbon /fuel Tax, social damage cost of carbon on the airport surface access through EPSRC projects. Air Transport Carbon Calculator invented (EPSRC OMEGA Project: 2006-2009) has been extensively used in the research and consulting projects (e.g. EPSRC; Airport Behavioural Change (ABC) project, Pratt and Whitney Flying Economy, economic evaluation of new GFT engine) over 12 years. She is a Co-Chair of Air Transport Group of the World Conference on Transport Research (WCTRS), and a member of COVID-19 taskforce.
Her research interests are carbon footprint, cost and benefit analysis, the impact of market based mechanism and economic instrument, and life cycle assessment.
