Angeliki Loukatou
Most of the people I know call me Kelly. I am a Dr and a Chartered Engineer with the IET, for which I am also a Professional Registration Advisor. I currently work as an Energy Insight Lead at National Grid ESO, developing their Future Energy Scenarios and contributing on the data and insights to the Bridging the Gap publication. I am also the Strategy Lead of Women in National Grid in the UK, and the Event Lead of Women in Non-Traditional Roles in the UK. I have launced and leading the 'Women in Data and Tech' bi-monthly series. Prior to this, I was a Lead Research Engineer at the R&D Department of EDF Energy in the UK and the Digital Lead of EDF Women's Network. There, I specialised in designing algorithms to optimally invest or dispatch standalone or co-located battery storage assets with solar generation, when participating in multiple electricity markets. Before that, I was a Modelling Analyst at Energy Systems Catapult, working as part of their system integration and innovation team, modelling energy storage, second-life batteries and long-term electricity price forecasting. I pursued a PhD in investment and optimal dispatch of battery storage assets, when co-located with wind generation, at the Centre for Doctoral Training in Power Networks of The University of Manchester (UoM). In addition, I am currently the Industry Chair of the first IET Energy Storage conference in the UK. I have a passion about diversity and inclusion, as well as good coding and data practices, and therefore I hold many relevent volunteering roles.
