Marie is a Manager with RMI’s India Program and Carbon-Free Transportation team, working at the intersection of electric mobility, power systems, and climate finance. Her work focuses on identifying and designing financing and policy tools that mobilize capital, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles and supporting infrastructure.
Marie leads analyses on how regulatory and market measures can enable transportation electrification and renewable integration, including grid planning and tariff design. Her work evaluates financial and market risks to identify targeted interventions to advance battery circularity and supply-chain resilience.
