Simon De Stercke is a technical project manager and energy systems data scientist with 10 years of experience translating academic research into actionable policy and modelling work. Based in Berlin, he now leads projects in the Energy Data and Modeling team at Agora Energiewende after a decade of research roles at IIASA and Imperial College focused on historical energy use, water–energy nexuses and demand dynamics. He holds a PhD in Civil and Environmental Engineering and has blended deep quantitative skills with teaching and public-facing outputs, including MOOC development and university instruction. His work updating long-run energy databases (PFUDB to span 1900–2020) and coordinating interdisciplinary programmes demonstrates a knack for turning messy, multi-decadal data into usable decision support. Outside energy analytics he teaches Pilates in Berlin, reflecting an unusual combination of rigorous analytical discipline and hands-on community engagement.
