As part of Energinets Graduate Programme i will be rotating through 3 departments for 8 months each. I get the possibility of choosing which departments i want to explore. 1st rotation (September 23 - April 24), Technology Development in Gastransmission. - worked with Thermodynamic Simulations using UniSim - Project development of the Green Hydrogen Hub Project at the gas storage in Lille Torup - Automation of simulation models to ease the departments work2nd rotation (May 24 - December 24) Global Activities/Energinet Associated Activities: - Collaboration with the Vietnamese and Indian TSO's together with the Danish Energy Agency - Development of Ancillary Service documentation for use in our international collaborations - Facilitating exchange programmes for engineers from the Vietnamese TSO to visit Energinet3rd rotation (January 25 - September 25): TBD

I worked as a SST in the ‘Power System Planning Group’ at the World Bank Group. My work revolved around least-cost decarbonization pathway analyses for energy systems on regional and national levels primarily for developing countries.Concretely I worked on - Mathematical optimization models implemented in GAMS. - Data analysis in Excel and Python. - Development of smaller Python tools to assist my colleagues in their work.

Teaching assistant in the course 42136: Large scale optimization using decomposition.The course focused on decomposition techniques - specifically Benders and Dantzig-Wolfe algorithms - to solve computationally hard MIPs by leveraging certain mathematical tricks to split the problem into smaller sub-problems that can be solved more efficiently.
