About the program/department/team

The Centre for Urban Energy (CUE) at Toronto Metropolitan University is an academic-industry partnership that is exploring and developing solutions to energy challenges such as the advancement of smart grid technologies, energy policy and regulatory issues, storage, electric vehicles, net-zero homes and renewables.

In September 2010, Toronto Metropolitan University announced the creation of the CUE. The intention was to provide a unique research and technology demonstration centre devoted to the discovery and commercialization of innovative, practical solutions to urban energy issues.

The creation of the CUE was supported by $7 million in funds from its founding sponsors: Toronto Hydro, Hydro One, and the Ontario Power Authority (now part of the Independent Electricity System Operator). Hydro One and Toronto Hydro each committed $2.5 million over five years, while the Ontario Power Authority pledged to provide up to $2 million during that same period.

The opportunity

The Centre for Urban Energy wishes to hire a postdoctoral research fellow for a period of one (1) year in the area of Modeling of Distributed Energy Resources, with a possibility of renewal based upon available funds.

The postdoctoral research fellow is expected to:

- Conduct research on the topic described above;
- Publish journal papers;
- Work on other duties as assigned.
