I joined the THS group as a PhD Student in May 2022 after I finished my master’s studies at RWTH Aachen University. My supervisor is Prof. Dr. Erika Ábrahám; I am co-supervised by Prof. Dr. Ralf Schelenz from the Center for Wind Power Drives.
I am working on “Sim4Dialog“, a project involving RWTH Aachen University, the Rhein-Ruhr-Institut für Sozialforschung und Politikberatung and the city of Herzogenrath. The project aims at accelerating the expansion of wind energy plants through increased acceptance by citizens. Dr. Pascal Richter coordinates this project at RWTH Aachen University and supervises me additionally.
