About Kai van Horn
Expert in leveraging electricity system modeling, analysis, and visualization to illuminate the impacts of the energy transition, and develop and communicate strategic responses. In my current role, I am exploring pathways to deep decarbonization and the challenges and opportunities they create for utilities and their customers. In the past, I have deployed this expertise to assist market participants, market operators, and other energy-sector stakeholders on a variety of consulting engagements focused on topics ranging from renewable integration, regional energy market formation, and capacity market design, to carbon pricing issues, and strategic visioning. I received a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, where I focused on designing measurement-based algorithms to improve electricity market models and system reliability. Prior to graduate school, I worked as an engineering consultant at Waterborne Environmental, Inc. and served as a U.S. Peace Corps volunteer in northern Zambia.
