Personal data

Short description
I work in the field of application-oriented research on energy storage systems in the form of hydrogen based on metal hydrides as well as their integration into existing application structures at the Helmholtz Center Hereon and Helmut Schmidt University. This research includes both the real construction of test facilities and the accompanying computer-based simulation (digital-twin). An additional focus is the coupling of different energy sectors for the integration of renewable energy with a volatile behavior as well as the compression of hydrogen via metal hydrides.
