Alejandro Nuñez-Jimenez

I am a Group Leader and Principal Investigator within the Chair for Sustainability and Technology of the Department of Management, Technology, and Economics at ETH Zurich and an Associate at the Belfer Center at Harvard Kennedy School.

I serve as Academic Editor at PLOS Climate.

My research interests focus on: Energy Policy, Innovation, Agent-Based Modelling, and Energy System Modelling.

I teach Energy Innovation and Management (Master’s level) at ETH Zurich.

I am the recipient of a Swiss National Science Foundation Ambizione Grant on Advanced modeling for assessing policy mixes for net-zero emissions technologies (Project Zero-AMPS).

I completed my PhD in 2020 at ETH Zurich, earned an MSc in Energy Management and Sustainability from EPFL in 2016 and a BSc in Energy Engineering from the UPM in 2014. I worked in the solar industry, at Cleanergetic Seers Solutions in Madrid and First Solar in Dubai.

I believe scientists have a crucial role in sharing knowledge to accelerate the energy transition. This is why I have helped start the Young leaders in Energy and Sustainability network and the Energy Blog @ ETH Zurich.
