Senior🎓
Top SchoolQingyu Xu is an associate research fellow with a decade of experience at the intersection of energy, environment, and economics, holding a PhD from Johns Hopkins and postdoctoral experience at Princeton and JHU. His work spans academic research and applied policy analysis, including energy market design, storage integration, and price formation studies during an internship at EPRI and research roles at Tsinghua and ZERO-lab. Based in Beijing, he recently transitioned to Beijing Huairou Laboratory after contributing to energy systems modeling and policy-relevant analyses in top US and Chinese institutions. Qingyu combines rigorous quantitative training with practical experience bridging academia and industry, and is actively seeking postdoc or industry opportunities focused on the power sector, environmental impacts, and economic implications. A less obvious strength is his cross-cultural research footprint, having navigated US and Chinese research ecosystems to tackle global energy challenges.
