An outgoing positive researcher that likes to talk about many things, and interests in many different hobbies.

Education

Msc. Energi og Miljø atNTNU: 2013-2018
Specialization within technical-economal analysis of the energy system, wrote masters thesis on battery storage for multi-market operation
Doctoral degree NTNU IEL: 2018-2022
Wrote a PhD on long-term operational planning of energy system in buildings. The work looked at long-term price signals for buildings, and how to represent them for short-term operational models, for better use of flexibility resources.
