About

Data-driven building energy research with a focus on flexibility.

Abdullah Jamal is a PhD candidate at Østfold University College in Norway working on data-driven building energy analysis, energy flexibility, and demand response in buildings. His research focuses on how smart meter data, weather information, and statistical or computational methods can be used to understand energy demand patterns, estimate heating-related loads, and quantify flexibility potential in public buildings.

His broader interests include smart buildings, electric heating flexibility, energy communities, renewable energy integration, virtual power plants, energy management, and reproducible analytical tools for building energy research.

Work style

What I work on

What I work on

My work investigates smart meter data, space heating load estimation, non-space-heating load interpretation, weather-augmented energy analysis, and methods for quantifying energy flexibility in buildings.

How I work

I aim to keep assumptions visible, connect analysis choices to physical building behavior, and communicate methods in a way that supports review by researchers, engineers, and project partners.

Open and reproducible research

The site is structured to support open science practices: code links, datasets, Zenodo records, BibTeX, and publication metadata can be added as research outputs become public.
