Sustainable Urban Development, Energy efficiency in buildings, Energy Planning and Management, Net zero built environment, Urban Water Systems and Integrated Urban Water Management, Urban Transportation Planning.
My research interests encompass various facets of urban sustainability and development. I focus on creating more environmentally friendly and efficient urban environments. Sustainable urban development is at the core of my work, seeking innovative solutions to balance economic, social, and environmental aspects. Energy planning and management are crucial for cities striving to reduce their carbon footprint. I delve into strategies to optimize energy usage in urban areas, from smart grid implementation to renewable energy integration. The concept of the net-zero built environment is a vision I work towards. This involves ensuring that the energy consumed in buildings is offset by energy production on-site or from renewable sources, contributing to a sustainable urban ecosystem. In the realm of urban transportation planning, I investigate innovative solutions to enhance mobility while reducing congestion and emissions. This includes exploring public transit systems, cycling infrastructure, and smart mobility solutions. In summary, my research profile revolves around creating more sustainable, efficient, and liveable urban environments. By addressing energy efficiency, sustainable construction, GIS-based urban planning, and integrated water management, I aim to contribute to the development of cities that are resilient, environmentally responsible, and beneficial for their inhabitants.
