Biography
Shahin is a multi-disciplinary researcher with work experience in decarbonisation of various sectors, including buildings, transportation, offshore wind energy, and oil and gas. He is currently a Research Fellow in Data for Net Zero (D4NZ) at the National Decommissioning Centre (NDC), working on the D4NZ project, funded by the Scottish Government’s Energy Transition Fund through the Net Zero Technology Centre (NZTC). He joined the School of Engineering at the University of Aberdeen in early 2020 as a Research Fellow, focusing on the offshore wind energy decabronisation within the DecomTools project.
Previously, he was a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Exeter, working on the transport decarbonisation. Through close collaboration with industry and wider stakeholders, Shahin has developed multi-criteria decision-making tools for offshore energy decarbonisation projects to support stakeholder decision-making processes. These tools assess the economic, environmental, safety, technical, and societal impacts of offshore energy projects in the North Sea region.
