Data-Driven Modeling and Decarbonisation Strategies for Integrated Energy Systems at Building and Urban Scale

The research activity will focus on the development and validation of data-driven methodologies for the modeling, analysis, and decarbonization of integrated energy systems at both the building and urban scales. This includes the processing of energy, environmental, and climate data; the forecasting of energy demand; the performance assessment of buildings and urban systems; and the analysis of strategies for energy efficiency, the integration of renewable energy sources, and sector coupling—including power-to-heat solutions and advanced district heating systems. The work will be geared toward developing transferable methodologies and decision-support tools for sustainable urban energy planning.
