Head of research group focussing on global PtX supply systems and markets
Heidi Ursula Heinrichs heads the group “Sustainable and Robust Supply Systems” within the Institute for Techno-Economic Systems Analysis (IEK-3) at the Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ). She holds a Ph.D. in engineering from Karlsruhe Institute for Technology (KIT) and a diploma in mechanical engineering from RWTH Aachen University. Her research and teaching focus on energy scenarios, modelling pathways towards sustainable energy systems, and integrating social, economic and technical dimensions in energy systems analysis; in the last 4 years with a special focus on the global scale and green hydrogen. She worked and works in these fields in Jülich, Cambridge and Karlsruhe. She has led various project on energy systems analyse and currently leads a project creating an atlas of green hydrogen potentials for West and Southern Africa.
