Shi You

Shi You is a Senior Researcher at the Department of Wind and Energy Systems, Technical University of Denmark (DTU), specializing in Power-to-X and Storage within Power and Energy Systems. With extensive expertise in renewable energy integration and hydrogen production, Dr. You serves as Principal Investigator for major projects including GreenHyScale and R2P2X, driving innovation in scalable hydrogen infrastructure.

Dr. You holds a Master's in Electric Power Engineering from Chalmers University of Technology (2005-2006) and a Bachelor's in Electric Engineering and Automation from Harbin Institute of Technology (2000-2004):

• Chalmers University of Technology: Master Program in Electric Power Engineering (2005-2006)
• Harbin Institute of Technology: BSc in Electric Engineering and Automation (2000-2004)

Research focuses on Energy Engineering, Power Engineering, and Hydrogen Production systems, with significant contributions to UN Sustainable Development Goals in clean energy. Current work emphasizes optimizing alkaline electrolyzers, renewable energy storage, and multi-energy hub design through advanced modeling and experimental validation.

Recent 2025 publications reveal strong trends in hydrogen production optimization, thermodynamic performance analysis of energy storage systems, and experimental validation of electrolyzer integration with renewables. Key themes include lifespan extension of multi-electrolyzer systems, decision-making frameworks for sustainable energy hubs, and material science applications for thermal storage.

Scientific recognition includes:

• Best Paper Award (2022) for mathematical modeling in renewable energy systems

Dr. You actively supervises PhD candidates including L. M. Dannappel on electrolyser plant control and N. Taranin on multi-energy hub design. Major grants include the €10M GreenHyScale project (2021-2026) for 100 MW green hydrogen production and R2P2X (2023-2026) developing reversible power-to-X technologies, securing substantial European and Danish research funding.

Working within DTU's Wind and Energy Systems department, Dr. You collaborates internationally through IEA Wind Task 61 and leads cross-disciplinary teams focused on industrial-scale hydrogen solutions, with ongoing partnerships across European energy consortia.
