PhD Researcher in Offshore Wind Acceleration
14 uur geleden
We are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to join our team at Universiteit Utrecht. The successful candidate will be part of a larger PhD program that is a collaboration between four universities in the Netherlands and industry partners. The program aims to investigate various aspects related to the development of the large-scale offshore wind farm, OranjeWind, located in the North Sea.
The PhD researcher will focus on creating quantified roadmaps for the energy system through energy system modeling and scenario analysis. This will involve analyzing national policies and strategies, including planning and legal procedures for offshore wind parks and infrastructure, to identify best practices and address discrepancies between national approaches. The research will also focus on the innovation system around the North Sea and multilateral collaboration frameworks.
The ideal candidate has a background, knowledge, and interest in sustainability transitions, innovation systems and theories, upscaling, lock-in, and resilience. Experience with interview and survey methods is essential, and an affinity for or interest in working in an interdisciplinary environment is important. Excellent English writing and speaking skills are required (C1 level minimum).
About the ProjectThe project aims to deliver over 760 megawatts (MW) of offshore wind capacity, sufficient to power nearly one million Dutch homes, and contribute to the Netherlands' offshore wind build-out targets. The wind farm will integrate offshore wind with electrolyser capacity for green hydrogen production, flexible demand solutions like e-boilers and battery storage, and floating solar panels to maximize ocean space use.
The development of a North Sea Energy system with GW of offshore energy generation capacity by 2050 presents significant challenges. The PhD researcher will work closely with two PhD candidates in the same program and experts from TNO, with a 50% presence at TNO offices. Interaction with other PhD projects, including those focused on system modeling and spatial planning, is expected.
