Roger Padullés I Solé

Roger Padullés I Solé is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering, Technical University of Denmark (DTU), specializing in industrial decarbonization through heat pump integration and thermal energy systems. His work directly contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals for sustainable energy and industry.

His research spans Heat Pump Engineering (100% fingerprint weight), Industrial Process Electrification, Thermal Energy Storage, and Exergy Analysis, with emphasis on practical applications for emissions reduction in manufacturing and dairy processing. Key methodologies include pinch analysis, exergy targeting, and day-ahead operational optimization for industrial heat pumps.

Recent publications demonstrate strong trends in European industrial electrification feasibility (2025), optimal thermal storage integration (2025), and exergy-based process design (2024), focusing on cost-effective pathways to net-zero emissions through high-temperature heat pumps and process integration.

He actively disseminates findings through conference presentations at international venues and completed a visiting research period at the University of Waikato (2023-2024). His work has generated significant academic engagement with 5+ citations and 50+ reader captures across recent publications.
