Dr. Adriana Marcucci Bustos

Adriana Marcucci joined the Energy Science Center, at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zürich, in June 2021. She is the coordinator of SWEET-CROSS (Coordination of Scenarios in SWEET). Before joining the ESC, Adriana worked as a scientist and in the management office of the Joint Activity Scenarios and Modelling (JASM), a collaboration of the eight Swiss Competence Centers that brought together modelling teams to create scenarios for the Swiss Energy System in 2050.   

Before working in JASM, Adriana worked as a Postdoctoral researcher in the Resources Economics group in ETH after doing her PhD in the Energy Economics Group in the Paul Scherrer Institute.

My research focuses on evaluating alternative pathways to reach long-term mitigation goals both at the Swiss and the global level. For this, I use energy technlogy models and integrated assessment models.
