Biography
Rahman Khorramfar joined MIT Energy Initiative as a postdoc associate in November 2021. His current research focuses on modeling multi-vector (electricity, natural gas, hydrogen) energy systems. In particular, he is developing mathematical formulations to study the planning and operation of integrated energy systems under resiliency considerations and its implications on the decarbonization of space heating in cold climates.
Rahman received his PhD from NC State University in Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE), where he developed solution approaches to study hierarchical decision making and decision making under uncertainty for problems arising in production planning and capacity expansion settings. During his PhD, Rahman participated in several student competitions and challenges for which his team won the “IBM 2020 Call for Code Spot Challenge” and “IISE Logistics and Supply Chain Student Case Competition”.
