Jan Wiemer is a research-focused electrical engineer and software developer with 8 years’ experience building and automating distribution network planning and operational tools at Fraunhofer IEE and Universität Kassel. He develops and applies pandapower-based models and simulations to create automated target network plans, incorporating thermal and weather-dependent asset limits and compliance studies under §14d EnWG. A hands-on Python and pytest practitioner, he contributes backend improvements to the widely used pandapower project—enhancing plotting, network models and control interfaces to make power-system analysis more accessible. His work bridges rigorous academic research (top-graded MSc) and production-grade tooling, and he has a track record of translating complex grid-management concepts like Spitzenkappung and curative control into deployable software and studies.
