Biography

I am currently pursuing my PhD in the Energy System Modelling Group of Dr. Tom Brown at the Institute for Automation and Applied Informatics of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, where I develop methodologies to improve power network representations in cross-sectoral decarbonised energy system models that co-optimise generation, transmission and storage expansion.

Previously, I did research at the Fraunhofer ISI, after I had finished my studies of Sustainable Energy Systems at the University of Edinburgh. I completed my Master in 2017 with a dissertation focussed on the optimal scheduling of electric vehicles in distribution networks under uncertainty. Before that, I studied industrial engineering centred on energy informatics and energy technologies at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. I wrote my Bachelor thesis on heat pump scheduling using genetic algorithms at the Research Centre for Information Technology (FZI).
