About Me

Working to support technological innovation in energy systems for the maritime sector

Over the years, I've had the opportunity to work on energy systems modeling and optimization, with a focus on hybrid solutions for naval and port applications. I do my best to combine theoretical insights with practical approaches to contribute to more efficient and sustainable technologies.

For me, engineering is about more than just technical skills—it's a way to tackle real-world problems with care, creativity, and a sense of responsibility. Each project offers a learning experience and a small chance to make a positive impact in the maritime energy field.

Outside of modeling and coding, I enjoy collaborating with research groups, supporting student projects, and working with Elettra APS to help bring forward ideas for a more sustainable future.

Featured Projects

Hybrid SPS Optimization via MPC

Implementation of a model predictive control (MPC) strategy for the optimal management of a hybrid shipboard power system. The MILP-based controller ensures secure and efficient operations under N−1 constraints, while optimizing ship speed, energy use, and CII compliance. Real load data and RNN-based forecasts support long-horizon simulations in MATLAB/Simulink.
