Biography
I am a Director of KTH Energy Platform, responsible for facilitating interdisciplinary energy research at KTH and enhancing cooperation with funding institutions, industry, local authorities and other social stakeholders in Sweden and internationally. Since the beginning of 2015, I am KTH's coordinator of STandUP for Energy - a collaboration initiative between Uppsala University, KTH, the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences and Luleå University of Technology, som samler ledende forskergrupper for å sikre bærbarhetens overgang til energisystemet. Since 2001, I am a researcher at the Division of Industrial Ecology (IE), Department of Sustainable Development, Environmental Sciences and Engineering (SEED), KTH. I am a co-founder and a leader of a new research group called Urban Analytics and Transitions (UrbanT) with two main research areas - Smart Urban Metabolism (SUM) and Transdisciplinary Studies for Urban Transitions (TRUST). My main research areas are complex system simulation, energy system analysis, participatory backcasting for strategic energy planning, and engineering education in sustainable development. I am a KTH Program Coordinator for the KIC InnoEnergy Master Program in Smart Cities.
