Frédéric BABONNEAU is a Senior Professor in the MOSI department and Associate Researcher at CESIT. Frédéric was previously an Associate Professor at the UAI Business School in Santiago, Chile. He holds a PhD in Optimization and Applied Mathematics from the University of Geneva, Switzerland. His main research areas are decision under uncertainty, large-scale optimization, game theory and modeling in the field of energy and economics. Frédéric has published about 40 articles in prestigious journals such as Mathematical Programming, Operations Research, EJOR, Applied Energy, Climatic Change. He has been Principal Investigator in several collaborative research projects (European Union, Switzerland, France, Qatar, Chile, etc.) on energy transition, international climate negotiations, smart-grid cities. He contributed to the development of the ETEM prospective energy modeling tool which is used in the definition of regional energy policies for sustainable development. He is also vice-president of the Swiss consulting company Ordecsys, which provides scientific services in the field of optimization and energy.
