Nicoli Matteo

I am an Energy and Nuclear Engineer. Since November 2024, I have been a postdoctoral research fellow at Università degli Studi di Torino, supervised by Prof. Valeria di Cosmo. I have been involved in the 37^th PhD cycle in Energetics at Politecnico di Torino from November 2021 to May 2025, supervised by Prof. Laura Savoldi and Prof. Anderson Rodrigo de Queiroz (NC State University). Since March 2023, I have been affiliated with NC State University as a visiting scholar.

My research activity concerns the Energy System Optimization and Modeling field, mainly focusing on the development of the TEMOA modeling tool and of the TEMOA-Italy and TEMOA-Europe model instances. Within the collaborative environment of the MAHTEP Group, I contributed at developing advanced methodologies, including: dynamic GHGs accounting, sustainability assessment, energy storage capacity expansion, studying the economic implications of the energy transition, evaluating the consumption of critical raw materials in future scenarios and the associated supply risk.
