Syed Areeb Ahmed

Designed a Hybrid Renewable Energy System (3MW Wind, 1.5MWp PV, 0.8MW/9.7 MWh VRFB) to meet a 6 GWh/year electrical demand of FAU Informatics building, generating 719MWh annual surplus energy. • Engineered a battery storage solution for 12-hour full-load shifting (~888 kW design load) enabling peak shaving. • Performed system sizing, energy yield analysis, site selection, and storage design using real data. • Executed techno-economic analysis €8.62M CAPEX, €1.72M NPV, 10.4% IRR, and 9-year payback.

• Conducted a 4E analysis (Energy, Exergy, Economic, Environmental) for a 660 MW supercritical coal-fired power plant, supporting energy performance evaluation and sustainability. • Supported a proposal for feedwater heating via solar thermal energy (PTC) integration, linking energy efficiency improvement with environmental and economic impact through efficiency increase and 5.66-year payback. • Prepared technical findings and recommendations, strengthening skills in energy data analysis.

• Coordinated sponsor communication with stakeholders and senior professionals for major university events, supporting the preparation of meeting materials and follow-up communication. • Organized Shark Tank-style start-ups events by managing timelines, logistics, presentation materials, and team coordination. • Contributed to professional pitches, communication activities, and presentation preparation using MS PowerPoint, Excel, Word, and Outlook, building strong teamwork and organizational skills

* Conducted an FMEA-based risk assessment across 4 production stages; Knitting, Compacting, Dyeing, and Pressing and evaluated 10+ critical components to identify risks affecting process reliability and product quality.. * Applied Severity–Occurrence–Detection scoring in Excel to calculate Risk Priority Numbers (RPNs) and identify the highest-risk component, supporting structured root cause analysis and prioritization. * Developed mitigation actions and target dates through structured tracking sheets.

• Supported records, technical documentation, and coordination across 4 departments; Maintenance, Electrical Utilities, HSE, and Inventory & Documentation, ensuring structured follow-up and reliable data handling. • Assisted in preparing documents and presentations for management meetings and internal coordination using Excel, Word, PowerPoint. • Helped maintain documentation flow, inspection records, and administrative updates, strengthening accuracy, reliability, and working in daily operations.
