I'm a researcher interested in finding the most cost-effective technologies to mitigate climate change. For my PhD at Imperial College London, I'm currently researching demand response technologies, their costs and how they compete with energy storage.

To compare demand response and storage, I'm particularly interested in their different capital and operational costs, spatial and temporal availability, as well as predictability. My research methods draw upon a range of techniques from different fields, including life-cycle assessment, levelised cost, stochastic optimisation, and time-series analysis.
