Chaewon Kim, a PhD student at University of Portsmouth under the supervision of Professor Chris Jones, has announced that her first thesis, titled “Emerging Hydrogen Spot Indices: Price Taker or Maker?”, has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Environmental Management.

Chaewon expressed deep gratitude for the guidance and support of her three supervisors, whose interdisciplinary expertise in accounting, finance, economics, psychology, and engineering, combined with strong methodological rigour, contributed significantly to the success of the publication.

Following this achievement, Chaewon is now preparing to advance her second thesis, with the initial draft scheduled for submission in 2026.
