Institute of Energy, Environment, and Economy, Tsinghua University
Ph.D. candidate in Management Science and Engineering at Tsinghua University, specializing in transportation decarbonization, Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technologies, and battery recycling. My research focuses on techno-economic analysis of low-carbon transition pathways and integrated assessment modeling for climate policy.
I have contributed to several national and international research projects, including work with the World Bank Group, European Commission, and China's National Key R&D Program. My expertise spans energy systems modeling, policy analysis, and cross-sectoral impact assessment of clean energy technologies.

A Spatiotemporal Analysis of Second-Life Battery Supply and Energy Storage Demand in China
Qi Ding (First Author), Wenying Chen (Corresponding Author)
International Conference on Applied Energy (ICAE2025) 2025
This paper presents a comprehensive spatiotemporal analysis of second-life battery supply and energy storage demand in China, supporting national carbon neutrality goals (2030 peak, 2060 neutral). The study focuses on retired EV battery applications and energy storage demand matching, addressing the critical challenge of spatiotemporal mismatch in battery recycling and reuse systems.
