Biografie

Brief biographical details:

She graduated from mechanical engineering department in 2015 and continued the master studies in the Department of Energy Science and Technology, Energy Institute, Istanbul Technical University.  till 2018. In the same time period, she worked as a research assistant at Energy Planning and Management Division of Energy Institute, Istanbul Technical University. She assisted two different courses named as Energy Efficient Building Design and Zero Energy Buildings. Meanwhile, she took part as a researcher in EU-FP7 projects called “CITYFIED” and “R2CITIES”. In these projects, she was responsible for energy performance modelling and technical reporting of the projects. In 2019, she had research activity on occupant behavior topic in the Chair of Building Physics and Technical Building Services (fbta), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.

Currently, she works in the Chair of Building Physics and Technical Building Services (b+tga), Wuppertal University and takes part in the InFlex project. Also, she pursues her PhD studies under the theme of “energy flexibly in buildings”.

 

Title and abstract of thesis project:

Investigation of Building Energy Flexibility at Cluster Level for a Promising Energy Flexibility Market

The stochastic nature of the renewable energy creates imminent energy balance in the grid network. Hence, the increment of the prosumer buildings influences the load profile of the grid and causes energy management problem. This new type of energy management problem has to be conducted by the stabilization of grid while exploiting the energy flexibility of the buildings. Stabilization of the grid is possible by the involvement of more buildings. The interaction of the buildings increases the chance to answer the grid status at a certain time. In this context, this research aims to answer the following question:

“To have a promising energy flexibility market, what role can a building in the cluster play for the grid stability?”

The goal is to analyze the impact of transformation from a single building to a building cluster, such that, this system will achieve to share the distributed energy generation and storage devices to obtain maximum energy efficiency and economical benefit.
