About this position
This PhD project at Monash University Malaysia focuses on the financial modelling and economic assessment of emerging low-carbon energy systems within industrial applications. The research aims to develop advanced frameworks that integrate system performance insights with techno-economic and cash flow analysis, enabling comprehensive evaluation of capital investment, operating costs, and long-term economic viability for sustainable energy infrastructure.
Key aspects of the project include scenario analysis to account for market variability and policy conditions, supporting informed decision-making, risk assessment, and strategic planning for future low-carbon industrial systems. The research will leverage interdisciplinary approaches, drawing from data science, financial economics, chemical engineering, and the Internet of Things to address the challenges of transitioning to sustainable energy solutions.
Supervision is provided by Professor Chong Meng Nan, an expert in the field. The position is fully funded through the GRES scholarship, which offers a stipend and tuition waiver for students worldwide. To be eligible, applicants must hold a First Class Honours (H1) degree or its equivalent (H1E) as recognized by Monash University Malaysia and meet the university's English language requirements.
