I am an economist with a degree from the University of Vienna, specializing in the economic analysis of power systems. Currently, I work as a researcher at BOKU University and as a lead quantitative analyst for Wien Energie.
My research focuses on power system modeling and environmental economics, with a particular interest in understanding the limitations of perfect competition assumptions in power system models. Currently, I focus on the social cost of electricity generation technologies.
Professionally, I have worked in both consultancy and strategic roles in the energy sector, advising municipal as well as multinational companies on investment strategies and decarbonization efforts.
I have experience in scientific programming with Python and GAMS, having developed tools such as medea and cleo to analyze renewable energy systems. Alongside my industry work, I am completing my PhD at BOKU University and have published in several leading journals in the field.
I look forward to continuing my research while supporting strategic decision-making in the energy sector.
Research Interests:
- Externalities of renewable electricity generation technologies, particularly wind power
- Power system modeling
- Investment in energy infrastructures
