Academic research
At the Centre for Energy Research I am leading the Energy Strategy and Environmental Effects (E-SEE) research group, focusing on power system security, electric power systems, energy meteorology and climatology, energy statistics, building and urban energy. I am also holding a part-time position at Budapest University of Technology and Economics as a senior research fellow with the Department of Electric Power Engineering.
I am always open for applications. Glancing at my previous thesis topics should give you an idea of the nature of the research you would be involved in.
