Research Assistant - Delta E+

My position as a research assistant was to work with several PhD students on two related projects. One involved expanding a model of electric and combustion vehicles with the goal of quantifying the life cycle environmental and economic impacts of vehicle production and use. The other involved developing a model of electric vehicle use, charging, and interaction with the power system to identify the infrastructure requirements and policy opportunities associated with the electrification of the BC vehicle fleet. During my work I developed skills related to reading and writing academic literature, data science with Python and Excel, and sharing results in the form of presentations and reports.

See my blog post where I detail my experiences with the co-op.
