[David Parra]

Dear Open Modellers,

The new Iberian Centre for Research in Energy Storage (CIIAE) is creating a new research group on energy system OPEN modelling. For this, senior, postdocs  and PhD positions will be posted in September 2022.

 CIIAE aims to be a centre of excellence in research, development and application of energy storage and hydrogen technologies to facilitate the integration of renewable energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Research will cover lab and modelling work at various scales and Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs), as well as including innovative pilot plants. CIIAE provides a stimulating research environment to work on some of today’s most pressing energy, environmental and societal challenges. Candidates will benefit from large network including research centres and companies in the Iberian peninsula and abroad.

In this context, we are recruiting researchers with talent and passion, in September 2022, at the senior, postdoc and PhD levels, to perform open-source energy system modelling, LCA, regulation, CFD, among others. Also, some of the jobs can offer long-term prospects, and CIIAE offers the best working conditions.

CIIAE is located in Cáceres (Spain). Caceres in a Unesco heritage city located close to the Portuguese border (100 km). This magical and medieval city, which was a location of King’s Landing in Game of Thrones, is famous for its history, food culture, fizzing modern art, and quality of life while being cheap to live in. Caceres is located in the region of Extremadura, which is a perfect spot for nature-related activities such as hiking, cycling and outdoor swimming, with skiing also being available within 1.5 hr. Half way between Madrid and Lisbon, beautiful beaches from Spain and Portugal are also reachable within 4 hr for a weekend getaway.

If anyone wants to know more, I would be available. 

Thank you and best regards,
