Research and expertise
I graduated from the University of Sheffield with a BSc in physics (2019), an MSc in energy engineering with industrial management (2020), and I joined the EPSRC ERBE CDT programme in the autumn of 2020.
Having completed work placements in various parts of energy engineering with companies such as E.ON UK, EDF, AMCO-Giffen and most recently the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC), I have developed a passion for understanding the complexity of buildings and their energy systems. My MSc project focussed on the use of agent-based modelling techniques to simulate a district heat network, which set the basis for my continued research into the dynamic modelling of multi-vector energy and heating systems.
My thesis, "Exploring the Thermal Demand Response Potential of UK Dwellings Using Rule-based Control of Electrified Heating Systems," aims to enhance demand-side energy flexibility to enable renewables and save consumers money.
