Head of the EnergyLab at the Research Campus MODAL
Coming from climate modeling, in 2014, I joined the Zuse Institute Berlin to work on sustainable energy network optimization. I am head of the EnergyLab of the Research Campus MODAL and the research groups Prescriptive Systems and Multi Energy Systems. Using algorithmic intelligence with my team I aim to develop software to make efficient and sustainable use of transport infrastructure.
