Dr. Chris Chen Gong

Gong

Chen ("Chris") Gong is a postdoctoral researcher at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK).

Dr. Gong is working currently on better representing electrification and variable renewable integration by coupling integrated assessment model REMIND to a detailed energy model DIETER (DIW).  Her research interests are energy system modelling, sector coupling, renewable energy storage, hydrogen and industrial energy transition. She is part of the ARIADNE and INTEGRATE projects.
