Xi Xi is starting a PhD on energy and development in Africa. She is exploring both utility-scale grid development and demand stimulation that interact with VRE-dominated grids, including e-mobility, green hydrogen, and supply chain relocation. The international dynamic of fuel for road, maritime, and aviation transportation is an emerging interest. Xi Xi also wants to explore the role of justice in the development context, both at international and domestic scales. She prioritizes East and Southern Africa, with potential angles around international collaboration with China and/or the U.S.
Xi Xi is seeking internships, part-time consulting work, or other forms of collaboration such as co-authoring papers, writing op-eds, or any research work in the relevant fields.
