Personal profile

Academic background

Wouter Zomerdijk joined the Intelligent Electrical Power Grids (IEPG) group as a doctoral candidate in January 2022. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering and his Master of Science degree in Sustainable Energy Technology from the Delft University of Technology in 2019 and 2021, respectively. In his master’s, he specialised in solar and wind energy, energy storage, and power engineering. During his master’s thesis, he focused on the impact of power and heating sector integration on the Dutch high-voltage electricity grid.

Research profile

Wouter Zomerdijk’s PhD research focuses on the observability of distribution systems, the application of distribution system state estimation models, and the development of digital twins for future energy systems. As part of this, he is working on the ecosystem architecture and definition of digital twins for power systems, laying a foundational framework as presented in his first publication: "On future power system digital twins: A vision towards a standard architecture." He is also involved in the LIFE City Platform project, which aims to develop a district-scale smart energy management platform that uses a Digital Twin to optimize electricity and heat demand in urban areas such as Bijlmer Noord in Amsterdam.
