Internship about Modelling Nuclear Energy in Future Low-carbon Energy Systems at the IAEA

 International Atomic Energy Agency offers internship opportunity for 12 months in Climate Change – Modelling nuclear energy in future low-carbon energy systems. The internship is awarded to persons studying towards a university degree or who have recently received a degree, which aims to support the development of a newly initiated activity on energy system modeling and analysis. It involves the development and test of the tools FRAMES and PowerInvest and their application to studies for the Agency. You will have the opportunity to gain practical work experience in line with your studies or interests and expose you to the work of the IAEA and the United Nations as a whole.

You will be responsible for:

• Develop mathematical models and tools and for the analysis of the power system, including the coupling with other energy services, such as process heat, hydrogen, or desalination.
• Perform calculations and participate in Agency analysis on the role of nuclear in low-carbon energy systems.
• Document the methodology developments and contribute to drafting reports.
