EPSRC Supported PhD Researcher: Solar Energy and Zero Carbon Technologies
3 weeks ago
The University of Nottingham is seeking a highly motivated and talented researcher to join the Prediction and Optimisation of Solar Energy Systems Lab (POSES lab) as an EPSRC Supported PhD Researcher.
The successful candidate will contribute to the development of new technologies that can significantly improve the incorporation of solar farms into future sustainable power systems. The PhD programme offers a fully funded, four-year PhD studentship which will start in October 2024.
The researcher will work on one of the following themes:
Theme 1: To significantly improve the prediction accuracy for intra-hour solar forecasting.
Theme 2: To significantly improve the modelling of PV systems.
Theme 3: To improve the coordinated use of different energy sources to enhance electricity system management, using enhanced PV energy prediction.
Theme 4: To understand what shapes community acceptance of large-scale solar farms.
The PhD programme offers:
- Training in the theory for solar energy technologies, experimental measurement and evaluation techniques, tools for modelling and predicting PV generation.
- Opportunities for industrial secondments to gain an insight into industrial challenges in this area and develop industry related skills.
- Opportunities for secondments with overseas research laboratories.
- Cutting-edge research where you will develop interdisciplinary skills.
We are looking for graduates with a strong degree in maths, physics, computer science, electrical and electronic engineering, mechanical engineering or social science disciplines looking for a challenging research project in an interdisciplinary environment.
