Dr. Naga Srujana Goteti is a Senior Technical Leader in the Energy Systems and Climate Analysis Group at EPRI. Her research focuses on building algorithmic solutions and energy system tools using multi-disciplinary approaches. She was a lead researcher in EPRI’s Integrated Strategic Planning (ISSP) Initiative, coordinating between the long-term resource planning, operations simulation, and transmission planning teams to develop new approaches for early-stage generator siting and robust generation resource planning.
Her primary research areas include long-term electricity sector resource planning, storage operations in electric grid systems, risk analysis and investment decision-making under uncertainty, and energy policy analysis.
Before joining EPRI, Dr. Goteti worked at the MIT Energy Initiative as a postdoctoral researcher. She has experience working in various positions in energy consulting, the DOE national labs, the oil and gas industry, and IT across the world.
She holds a Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical and Electronics from Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Masters in Energy from Asian Institute of Technology, and a doctorate in Sustainability Studies from Rochester Institute of Technology, NY.
