Description

WHO I AM: I hold a PhD in Energy from Imperial College London. I teach practical, real-world data science specifically for the energy sector.


REGULAR ENHANCEMENTS: This course is reviewed periodically with updates to reflect the modern energy market.


STUDENT BONUS: Note: Students who enroll in this course will receive access to the Energy Data Scientist community.


What You'll Learn:

  • How to model and solve real-world optimization problems using GAMS, Pyomo, and Mosel

  • How to handle large-scale optimization problems with multiple constraints and variables

  • How to master fundamental concepts: optimality, infeasibility, unboundedness, duality, and slackness

  • How to use Mosel's advanced features including MILP models, Excel integration, and multidimensional variables

  • How to translate real industrial problems into mathematical optimization models

  • How to choose the right tool (Pyomo, GAMS, or Mosel) for specific optimization challenges


Perfect For:

  • Energy economists and planners optimizing grid operations and resource allocation

  • Operations research analysts solving logistics and supply chain problems

  • Environmental consultants forecasting emissions and planning sustainability strategies

  • Graduate students in engineering, economics, or operations research

  • Data scientists adding optimization capabilities to their toolkit

  • Financial analysts optimizing portfolios and risk management

  • Industrial engineers improving manufacturing and production systems

  • Anyone needing to solve complex decision-making problems quantitatively


Why This Matters:

Optimization drives trillion-dollar decisions in energy markets, supply chains, and climate planning. As industries race toward net-zero, professionals who can model complex systems and forecast emissions are commanding premium salaries. Whether optimizing renewable energy integration, minimizing transportation costs, or forecasting CO₂ trajectories for policy planning, these skills are non-negotiable for data-driven decision making. GAMS, Pyomo, and Mosel are the industry standards used by energy companies, consulting firms, and research institutions worldwide. Master the tools that power everything from Google's data center optimization to national grid planning. These capabilities open doors to senior analyst and optimization engineer roles paying $150,000-280,000+ in energy, logistics, finance, and environmental consulting.
