Francesco Baldi is an energy systems researcher with nine years of experience bridging academic research and applied project work in maritime and industrial energy technologies. Currently a researcher at ENEA and postdoctoral project lead at EPFL, he has managed European research projects and developed models for energy system optimization in shipping from his PhD at Chalmers. He combines deep technical expertise in energy conversion and waste heat recovery with experience in naval architecture, bringing a systems-level view to design and operation challenges. His international training—from Bologna to Paris and Gothenburg—and long-term field placements reflect strong adaptability and cross-cultural collaboration. He is comfortable translating academic research into practical solutions for industry and policy, particularly within decarbonization and efficiency improvements. Less obvious: his background includes hands-on evaluations of reactor core correlations and agricultural engine heat recovery, evidencing a rare breadth across energy domains.
