In the scope of her doctoral studies at the RLS Graduate School Energy System Transition, Martha investigates justice aspects within energy transition planning since January 2022. Previously, she worked at the Reiner Lemoine Institut (RLI) in the research group Off-Grid Systems, and was in charge of management and tasks within the H2020 research project E-LAND. In her time at the RLI she developed a simulation tool for electrification option planning (Offgridders) and a tool for optimizing sector-coupled energy systems (Multi-Vector Simulator). Martha finished her master´s degree Regenerative Energy Systems at the Berlin Institute of Technology.
