Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJuan Novo is a co-founder and wind energy engineer with nine years’ experience building physics-informed AI and control systems for renewable operations, predictive maintenance, and energy trading. He combines a strong engineering-physics background (MSc specialization in wind energy) with hands-on expertise in LabVIEW, cRIO/FPGA deployments, and Transformer-based spatio-temporal forecasting developed during research at the University of Colorado Boulder. At Zentus.io he focuses on optimizing storage and trading in volatile renewable markets, leveraging models informed by physical constraints rather than pure black-box ML. His trajectory blends academic research, real-time control systems for experimental turbines, and early-stage startup productization—an unusual mix that bridges field hardware, optimization, and market-facing AI. Based in Pontevedra, Spain, he brings both the practical rigour of lab and FPGA work and the strategic vision to translate forecasts into commercial energy operations.
