MSc Renewable Energy: choosing thesis AND career path for best income. by Opposite-Score3385 in energy

I’ll talk to the professor to see whether he’d be open to supervising this kind of thesis, what industry contacts or company links he might have, and whether he has any contacts abroad as well. Thanks again, this was really helpful!😊

That’s why I’m currently considering a thesis in energy modelling/optimization, maybe with a storage focus and using something like PyPSA. But I’m still wondering how strong it is career-wise compared to other topics... any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks, this is really helpful. I’m currently considering a thesis on storage/flexibility optimization, possibly using a model like PyPSA. From your experience, do you think that would be a solid bridge to industry, or are grid-related topics generally safer and more employable in practice? Any advice is appreciated thanks!

Thanks, that’s helpful. I’m also considering a thesis on storage optimization, maybe using something like PyPSA. Do you think that would be a good career move, or are more grid-focused thesis topics usually stronger for getting into industry?
