Main content
PhD Researcher of Multi-scale Energy Systems for Low Carbon Cities
Shanshan is a researcher and a doctoral student at EPFL, Switzerland. She has a Bachelor degree in Chemical engineering and completed her Master degree in the Energy Science and Technology program at ETH Zurich, where she re-directed her research interests to the field of urban energy system. After graduation, she worked as a research assistant at the Chair of Building Physics at ETH Zurich, where she completed her Master thesis. The Master thesis was on exploring different thermal energy supply and storage system configurations within a neighbourhood through dynamic modelling.
Research
In the MuSES (Multi-Scale Energy Systems for Low Carbon Cities) project, Shanshan is working on system design, modelling as well as contributing to the development of the open-source energy analysis tool, City Energy Analyst (CEA). She is interested in energy potentials, decentralised energy integration and the integration capability of energy networks in the tropical context.
