She has a keen interest on the Energy Transition issues and impacts on energy users. Her research at TU Delft focuses on European Energy Communities and how community driven interventions can facilitate affordable and clean energy for all residents.  She is also part of a three year project European Commission funded project known as Waterwarmth.
