Job Description

Master Thesis - Benchmarking and Transferability of Grid Foundation Models for Power Grid Analysis

At the Institute of Climate and Energy Systems - Energy Systems Engineering (ICE-1), we develop advanced models and algorithms for the simulation and optimization of integrated multi-energy systems. As renewable generation, electrification, and sector coupling increase, energy systems are becoming more complex and volatile. To address these challenges, we are building a next-generation, high-performance simulation platform for large-scale energy grids, leveraging modern HPC architectures and advanced parallelization techniques. As part of our team, you will contribute to cutting-edge software solutions that enable robust and data-driven decision-making for the energy systems of the future.
