Berlin, Germany
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPascal Weigmann is a research scientist based in Berlin with nine years’ experience modeling energy and climate transformation pathways using integrated assessment models, notably REMIND. He combines domain expertise in GHG emissions and power-sector datasets with hands-on research software engineering to improve model reliability, usability, and validation workflows. Pascal has led modeling work for finance-sector climate initiatives (NGFS) and national transition studies (ARIADNE), and published an R package for validating IAM scenarios against reference and near-term data. His background in physics and life-cycle assessment gives him a strong quantitative foundation and an eye for data curation across sources like EDGAR, CEDS, EMBER and IRENA. Outside core modeling he has built simulation tools for transport electrification and has a track record of translating complex research into practical tools and visualizations.
