Dr. Julian Inchauspe is a Senior Lecturer in Economics in the School of Accounting, Economics and Finance, Curtin Business School, Faculty of Business and Law at Curtin University, Australia. He also holds the position of Economics Discipline Co-Lead. Inchauspe obtained his PhD in Economics from Macquarie University. His research focuses on economic theory and modeling, with emphasis on the analysis of market structures, market failures, and the evaluation of policy interventions. Much of his work addresses energy economics, including renewable energy returns, electricity market integration, hydrogen prospects, banking competition, fiscal policy dynamics, and carbon emissions composition.

Inchauspe has published extensively in peer-reviewed journals and reports. Key publications include 'The Dynamics of Returns on Renewable Energy Companies: A State-Space Approach' (2016, co-authored with Ronald D. Ripple and Stefan Trück), which examines state-space modeling of returns in renewable energy equities. 'Integration of regional electricity markets in Australia: A price convergence test' (2017, with Nicholas Apergis and Fabio Fontini) assesses price convergence across Australian regional electricity markets. Other notable works are 'Concentration and Competition in the Australian Banking Industry: A Non-Linear ARDL Approach' (2020, with Helen Cabalu), analyzing non-linear competition effects in Australian banking; 'Fiscal policy dynamics under a consolidation constraint: evidence from Australia' (2021); and 'An overview of hydrogen prospects: Economic, technical and policy considerations for Australia' (2021). He contributed to 'Analyzing the Share Composition of CO2 Emissions in Asian Countries' (2016) and the report 'Business Models and Energy Transition' (recent). Additionally, 'How Do Governments Set Fuel Excise Levies? A Testable Theoretical Framework and Evidence from Australia' (2026) explores excise levy mechanisms. Inchauspe's research informs policy on energy transitions, market regulations, and economic stability.
