Christine Brandstätt M.Sc.
Biography
Christine studied industrial engineering focused on environmental planning at the Environmental Campus Birkenfeld (ECB), a branch of the University of Applied Sciences Trier. During that time she gained first experience in research and project work in the field of renewable energies as an intern or student assistant at the chair of corporate governance, accounting and management control, the ministry of the environment in Saarland, the EUA Pertz engineering office, the environmental centre at the chamber of crafts and the institute for future energy systems. There she also developed her Bachelor’s Thesis on energy system analysis. She consolidated her interest in system integration of renewable energies through the Erasmus-Mundus Master course "Management and Engineering of Environment and Energy" (ME3) at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM), Ecole des Mines de Nantes (EMN) and Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan (KTH) in Stockholm. At the Bremer Energy Institute she first developed her Master’s thesis on the development of transmission lines along with the DESERTEC concept. In August 2010 she became a researcher in the sections og renewable energy and energy economics with focus on system integration of renewable energies and the development of smart grids.
