If you are looking for an informed academic perspective on energy trading and renewables I can recommend to contact the following researchers [1]. Just write them an email and explain what you are working on, I could imagine they are going to be interested!
I do have a somewhat unrelated comment, though. Looking through some of the examples, I have found an analysis of charity „effectiveness“ where effectiveness is defined very simplistically as the amount of money directed to the cause. I just want to highlight that this kind of measure does not tell you much about the real life effectiveness of charities in terms of how much GOOD they actually do because the effectiveness of causes/interventions themselves vary wildly per charity. For example, there is an organization called playpumps international which has likely worsened the life of villagers where they sponsored complicated water pumps that required kids to play on them to produce water compared to simple water pumps that looked less fun but could be used without this effort. Compare this to the Against Malaria Foundation which has consistently shown to be able to save lifes by costeffectively distributing treated bed nets in rural areas of Africa.

If you are totally awesome you could also consider to update your project with references to these websites and if you should use this project in a future pitch shine with great evidence and expertise on the topic ;)
