Research Focus

My research focuses on advanced solar thermal and photovoltaic-thermal technologies and their integration into multi-energy systems for the decarbonization of industrial and energy infrastructure. Current research areas include renewable industrial heat, thermal energy storage, solar combined heat and power, hydrogen production, cooling and water-energy systems, and integrated energy solutions for emerging applications such as sustainable AI and data-center infrastructure.

A particular focus is placed on system integration, experimental demonstration and independent validation, techno-economic optimization, and the translation of research technologies toward industrial deployment.
