About

Qi Ding

Ph.D. candidate at the Institute of Energy, Environment, and Economy, Tsinghua University

I study how transport and low-carbon-fuel transitions reshape infrastructure and hourly power-system operation.

My work connects long-term pathways with spatial planning and operational resilience.
