معرفی
Puneet Saini is a Researcher at Dalarna University's School of Information and Engineering, employed since 2019 with primary responsibilities in renewable energy research and teaching. His work focuses on solar thermal systems and district heating with large-scale storage for industrial applications.
Educational background includes:
- Ph.D. (2023): Solar heating systems for industrial applications
- Master's Degree (2019)
His research centers on renewable heating solutions with emphasis on solar thermal integration, pit thermal energy storage, and heat pumps for Swedish district heating systems. Current projects analyze techno-economic viability of co-generation systems for breweries and flexible industrial heat applications, addressing climate-specific challenges in Nordic conditions through experimental and modeling approaches.
Recent publications (2024-2025) demonstrate consistent specialization in solar district heating with pit storage, showing strong industrial relevance through brewery case studies and high-temperature heat pump development. Work emphasizes replication frameworks, KPIs, and Swedish context adaptation across all studies.
Dr. Saini participates in approximately 10 research projects on renewable heating systems while teaching 15+ courses at bachelor's and master's levels, serving as Programme Director for the Master Programme in Energy Efficient Built Environment and Course Coordinator for Solar Thermal, Fluid Dynamics, and Bio-Climatic Design.
