Short Bio

I am a social scientist working at the Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg. I look a sustainable energy transition from the perspective of innovation and technology studies. My current research deals the aspirations and challenges of “twin transitions”, i.e. the coupling between digitalisation and sustainable development in the energy sector. I look at how the development and implementation of digital technologies is deeply embedded and therefore influenced by socio-technical configurations of transitions.
