Design and analyze psychological and discrete conjoint surveys on customer's behavioural models for market segments and diffusion of new technologies (e.g. solar photovoltaic)
Aggregation, analysis, and evaluation of complex data from multiple data sources for southeast Asia and Europa countries
Investigated the effects of urbanization on energy demand and renewable energy development with mass data from Southeast Asian countries
Modelling and optimizing with high renewable energy penetration based on EU mass data
