Biography
Dr. Gordon Huang is the University of Regina Tier Canada Research Chair in Energy and Environment. He is an international leader in the field of environmental systems studies. He and his research team are using inexact optimization approaches to tackle many complexities of energy and environmental management. In particular, they are examining environmental management under uncertainty, and energy systems planning under changing climatic conditions. Huang’s technologies have already been used in multiple sectors, and in many regions and jurisdictions, as the scientific bases for formulating policies that have enormous socioeconomic implications. The resulting findings revealed various complexities in energy and environmental systems and obstacles that hinder sustainable energy development. Huang’s research will help strengthen Canada's ability to be an international leader in managing energy and environmental concerns in the future.
