Dr. Dan Livengood is a Senior Technical Leader in the Energy Systems and Climate Analysis group at EPRI. Dr. Livengood researches emerging energy technologies in support of utility resource planning and EPRI’s energy-economy modeling efforts.
Prior to joining the Energy Systems and Climate Analysis group, Dr. Livengood was a Research Scientist on the Grid Modeling team at Breakthrough Energy where the team was exploring pathways for and supporting policies to accelerate deep economy-wide decarbonization. His interest in power systems research more broadly dates to his dissertation focus at MIT on flexible demand from distributed energy resources as a mechanism for balancing variability and uncertainty on the grid.
Dr. Livengood earned a bachelor’s degree in Systems Science and Engineering and a master’s degree in Systems Science and Mathematics from Washington University in St. Louis, and a doctorate in Engineering Systems from MIT.
