Models can truly support the energy transition. The whole Climact team is focused on leveraging them towards climate action.

The modelling team is growing as we expand our current models to more countries to cover all major economies, and also expanding the type of analysis and services we can provide (e.g., the impact on power and gas networks at the European level).

Your role will be to support these model developments and support the extraction of the full data flow.

  • Contribute to the suite of Climact's models, in cocreation with the consultants (who are more frequently in touch with client teams), and the technical team (who provides the programming environment and the tools).
  • The main focus is to contribute to the energy and power production, transport and distribution sectors in the existing tools (in particular the Pathways Explorer, EUCalc), improving and refining the calculation workflows, from the raw data to the client results.
  • Model within the programming environment set up by the technical team. Extensive use of visual programming (KNIME) and programming in Python (incl. exploiting the PyPSA model).
  • Interpret the model results and become expert on the modelling of the power and energy sector.
  • Contribute to the specification of energy & climate change scenarios, for a wide variety of geographies (EU and its member states, China, India, etc.).
  • Contribute to developing analytics and data science expertise within Climact.
