@snikitapente
Energy R&D intern building data-driven forecasting for solar and storage.
What I'm looking for
I’m a B.Tech. in Energy Science and Engineering student at IIT Delhi (DGPA: 7.608/10) focused on research that turns energy data into actionable insights. I’ve worked at Waaree Energies as an R&D intern, benchmarking PV modules across efficiency, degradation, and temperature coefficient, and using SAM to optimize bifacial panel tilt and mounting height.
My projects combine modeling, statistics, and machine learning for energy applications—forecasting India’s e-waste generation from curated multi-year datasets, quantifying ENSO/IOD impacts on Indian solar resource with ERA5 data, and improving next-hour electricity demand forecasts by redesigning an architecture to reduce test RMSE by 36.6% vs. persistence. I also explore solar powered hydrogen pathways and storage control/feasibility, guided by rigorous analysis and clear reporting.
