Office hours

My office hours are Thursday 15.00–17.00 online. You can book a meeting by sending a Teams invite. Feel free to ask for an in-person meeting as well, especially for pastoral issues!  This might happen on a different afternoon, as I'm partially working from home.

Dr Femke Nijsse is a complexity scientist who models the transition towards clean energy in different sectors. She is a key developer of the E3ME-FTT energy-economy-environment model, in particular the FTT submodels on heat, transport and power. Major energy technologies in E3ME-FTT are represented with evolutionary economics, so that the diffusion of a new technology follows an S-curve. Her work addresses innovation, the integration of high shares of variable renewables in electricity grids and how sector coupling can help accellerate the transition to a net-zero energy system. This work informs what policies are effective at what stage of the transition in which country.
