♻️ I started my career as a chemical engineer in the mining industry in sunny Western Australia. While the work was interesting I always had a passion for sustainability and given that mining isn’t exactly the most environmentally friendly thing to do (and frustrated with how slowly the Australian government was taking action on climate change at that time), I decided to come study renewable energy in Europe where climate change was being taken seriously. After travelling through many countries (and picking up a MSc in Finland and PhD in the Netherlands along the way), I’m now at TenneT - the Dutch and German Transmission System Operator (TSO)- where I work on paving the way towards a reliable, affordable, and sustainable power and energy system. ⚡️A key focus of mine is security of supply, and I’m part of the team conducting TenneT’s annual security of supply analysis for the Netherlands (the Monitoring Leveringszekerheid), as well as the European Resource Adequacy Assessment (ERAA) in collaboration with other TSOs as part of ENTSO-E. I also (co-)led our Adequacy Outlook study exploring long-term resource adequacy in a net-zero emission Dutch and German energy system, and the important role firm capacity resources such as demand-side response, cross-border transmission, storage and low-carbon energy carriers like hydrogen could play in the future energy system, alongside solar and wind. 🔍 Another aspect of my work involves analyzing the economic viability of capacity resources to ensure that the scenarios we consider for the future power system are as robust as possible, and identifying potential risks to resource adequacy amidst challenging market conditions. I’m also heavily involved in the ongoing Bidding Zone Review and other market-design related topics.🤝 Decarbonizing the energy system is a massive challenge, especially given we may only have a little over 20 years to do it. Every country on the planet is facing the same issue and while they may have slightly different ways of solving the problem, I’m convinced that by sharing our insights and thinking out the thorny issues together, we can get there faster and avoid making the same mistakes. That’s why I’m here on LinkedIn, so feel free to reach out. I’m not the most active poster nor timely replier myself, but I’m working on it 😅

Utrecht Area, Netherlands
I joined the Copernicus Institute to pursue my PhD in the field of energy system analysis. I used Power System modelling to investigate the long-term technical and economic feasibility of the European power system with increasing penetration of intermittent renewable energy sources. In particular, I focussed on the integration costs of variable renewable.
In this role my responsibilities included* troubleshooting area equipment including the calciners, horizontal vacuum filters, pumps and dust conveying systems to minimize refinery production losses.* continuously monitoring and controlling the final SGA product quality within contractual limits by manipulation of calciner operating conditions and.
