Ottmar Edenhofer is a leading expert in the field of the economics of climate change. His main research interests cover the impact of technological change on the costs and strategies of climate change mitigation, public finance, distributional effects of climate policy instruments, scientific policy advice and the science-policy-interface as well as inequality research. Edenhofer was pioneering in giving PIK a social science research agenda providing rigorous and meaningful information on climate change mitigation to society.

Edenhofer’s research influences political decision making. His advice is sought on the ministerial and international political level. Among his many obligations he is member of the German National Academy of Science and Engineering acatech as well as member of the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina, Section Economics and Empirical Social Sciences. From 2008 to 2015, Edenhofer served as Co-Chair of Working Group III of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and contributed heavily to the shaping of the Fifth Assessment Report on Climate Change Mitigation which provided the scientific basis for the Paris Agreement. Its analysis on the feasibility of the 2°C-target was groundbreaking and provided essential information for decision makers.

Edenhofer has published articles in Science, PNAS, Nature, Nature Climate Change, European Economic Review, Resource and Energy Economics, Energy Economics, Macroeconomic Dynamics, World Development, Journal of Environmental Economics and Management as well as other peer-reviewed journals and authored a number of books. His work has been heavily cited, which is illustrated by an h-index of 52 in Scopus, 49 in Web of Science and 77 in Google Scholar. In 2018, 2020, 2021 and 2022, Ottmar Edenhofer belonged to the 1% of the most cited scientists worldwide in the category "interdisciplinary science" according to the Web of Science citation index. The FAZ ranked Edenhofer in 2019 and 2020 among the 10 most influential economists in Germany, in 2021 he was ranked on place 15. In July 2018,  Edenhofer was awarded the Romano Guardini Prize by the Katholische Akademie in Bayern (Catholic Academy in Bavaria). This was followed in 2020 by the prestigious Deutsche Umweltpreis (German Environmental Award) by the Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU). In December 2020, Ottmar Edenhofer was appointed a consultor of the Vatican's “Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development”, created by Pope Francis a few years ago. The dicastery's mission is to strengthen justice for refugees and stateless people who have had to leave their homes due to violence, economic crises or natural disasters, as well as promoting justice for the sick and poor. In November 2021, Edenhofer received the Arthur Burkhardt-Prize for the interdisciplinary orientation of his research. In December 2022, Edenhofer received the Bavarian Order of the Constitution. In the course of the assembly of academy members on the occasion of Leibniz Day 2023, Edenhofer was appointed to the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities (BBAW) due to his outstanding scientific achievements.

Since April 2022, Edenhofer has been chair of the European Environment Agency's newly established European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change. The board will provide independent scientific advice and produce reports that record the extent to which EU policy is in line with the 2021 European Climate Change Act and the EU's commitments under the Paris Agreement.
