About
Dr Abhi Chatterjee is currently associated with the Institute for Sustainable Futures (ISF), University of Technology Sydney (UTS), as a Senior Researcher (A/Lecturer) within the energy research group.
His research interests typically include but are not limited to exploring:
o Sustainable Development Goal 7 for energy access and the interdisciplinary aspects of SDGs
o Remote/rural electrification
o Microgrids OR Decentralized Electrification (planning, operation and optimization techniques)
o Climate change (policy and framework developments and assessments)
Prior to joining ISF UTS, Abhi was associated with the Big4 corporate firms (EY and Deloitte), advising and managing projects related to energy transitions and sustainability strategies for government and private entities across Oceania and Asia. Within the corporate structure, he delivered projects related to energy transition advisory services, climate change and decarbonisation strategies for stakeholders (government and private) across Australia, New Zealand, India and other Southeast Asian countries.
Abhi has extensive experience in the qualitative and quantitative research evaluations in the interdisciplinary scope of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), off-grid electrification and energy access scenarios, trends and applications.
Abhi’s PhD established a framework to improve the design of sustainable remote microgrids in the remote communities of developing nations, which is critical in identifying and characterising the dimensions of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals for 'Affordable and Clean Energy Access'.
Also, he is a global IEEE Taskforce Member of the Sustainable Energy Systems for Developing Communities (IEEE-SESDC) - a working group liaising with industrial and academic stakeholders and governmental regulatory bodies internationally to enhance techno-socio-economic viability for a sustainable future.
Abhi is recognized as a Global Talent in the energy sector by the Department of Home Affairs, Australia. He aims to contribute to the Australian economy as an asset to accelerate the adaptation strategies for sustainable community development and help Australian institutions advance the nations’ commitment toward achieving a net-zero emissions target by 2050.
