Biography

Marzia Sesini is the Research Team Leader – Molecules & Materials at the Florence School of Regulation (FSR), where she leads research activities on the decarbonisation of the energy system through the lens of gas, clean molecules, and critical raw materials. She is Director of the Loyola Autumn Research School – LARS and of the EU Gas ‎Network Codes course, and Co-Director of the Energy Markets and Regulation course.

Her research focuses on supply and value chains for decarbonised energy carriers and technologies, explored from multiple angles: security of supply, renewable and low-carbon gases, clean molecules, critical raw materials, cross-infrastructure integration, and distribution network optimisation modelling.

An engineer by training, Marzia has accrued extensive experience in the energy sector across academic and corporate settings. Prior to joining FSR, she worked at the Chaire Economie du Climat at Université Paris-Dauphine, the Institut Europlace de Finance, in the Corporate Strategy Department at Snam, at Bocconi University’s Department of Management and Technology, and at the Oxford Institute of Energy Studies (OIES).

She holds a Ph.D. in Process Systems Engineering from the Chemical Engineering Department at Imperial College London, where her research investigated the costs and political implications of shared and coordinated natural gas storage in the EU under supply/demand shocks. She also holds an M.S. in Sustainability Management from the Earth Institute at Columbia University and an M.S. in Engineering from Pavia State University.
