1980
Huntington
is Executive Director of Stanford University's Energy Modeling Forum, where he conducts studies to improve the
usefulness of models for understanding energy and environmental
problems. In 2005 the Forum received the prestigious Adelman-Frankel Award from the International Association for Energy Economics for its "unique and innovative contribution to the field
of energy economics."
His current research interests are modeling energy security, energy price shocks, energy
market impacts of environmental policies, and international natural gas and LNG markets.
In 2002 he won the Best Paper Award from the Energy Journal for a paper co-authored with Professor Dermot Gately of New York University.
He
is a Senior Fellow and a past-President of the United States
Association for Energy Economics and a member of the National Petroleum Council. He was also Vice-President for
Publications for the International
Association for Energy Economics and a
member of the American Statistical Association's Committee on Energy Data. Previously, he served on a joint
USA-Russian National Academy of Sciences Panel on energy conservation research and
development.
Huntington has testified before the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and the California Energy Commission.
Prior
to coming to Stanford in 1980, he held positions in the corporate and government sectors with Data Resources
Inc., the U.S. Federal Energy Administration, and the Public Utilities
Authority in Monrovia, Liberia (as a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer).
