Research Interest

  • Deep Reinforcement Learning for simulating and optimizing decision-making processes in electricity markets
  • Agent-based modelling to analyse market dynamics, strategic interactions, and emergent behaviour in electricity market simulations
  • Energy market engineering, combining the two methods above with an emphasis on designing and evaluating market structures, bidding strategies, and regulatory mechanisms
