Dr Jay Doorga (born 24th April 1993) is a Mauritian researcher[1] and author, in the field of Renewable Energy, Climate Change[2], Environmental Management, Geospatial Modelling.[3]
In 2019, he led his team to the construction of a wave energy prototype[4] which is patented under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs[5],and he advocated to invest strategically in wind and solar farms in Africa[6][7], worked to identify flood risk areas in Mauritius due to climate change[2], and researched on geospatial optimization of energy infrastructure in Africa[8][9]
In 2022, he also co-authored a book called Geospatial Optimization of Solar Energy :Cases from Around the World[10] which explains the challenges by policymakers regarding the planning and exploitation of solar energy, and how to optimize solar energy using GIS. [11]
Education
Dr Doorga attended College du St-Esprit, where he was proclaimed Laureate and won the prestigious State Scholarship, which awards top students in Mauritius[12][13] and went to do an MSc in Environmental Change and Management from the University of Oxford[14]
