Hi all, sharing this vacant PhD position (fully funded, 4 years) on energy modelling with the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) and the Flemish Institute for Technological Research (VITO).
Please forward to any excellent students that may be interested.
The project aims to explore the important topic of better representing climate extremes (droughts, dunkelflautes, etc.) at different spatiotemporal resolutions in energy planning models (capacity expansion & dispatch), especially for power systems with high shares of renewables.
The position is funded for four years and will be based between the VUB campus in Brussel/Bruxelles and the VITO EnergyVille campus in Genk.
