About me

I am a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Liège in Belgium. I work with Prof. Louis Wehenkel within the Systems and Modelling Research Unit.

Research Interests

My main interests are on aspects of power system reliability and economics within the operational context. The goal of my research is the development of novel technical and economic concepts to address the challenges related to the secure and efficient operation of low carbon electricity systems.
