Eva studied Aerospace Engineering and collaborated as a young researcher at the Motion Control and Industrial Applications (MCIA) research centre. There, she discovered her wish to support industry and society to achieve a new and sustainable energy paradigm, which led her to study a PhD in energy systems optimization. Her research interests include energy systems modelling, energy forecasting, techno-economic and environmental optimization, energy transactions and risk assessment.
