Description
- Current focus: hydosocial analysis of different urban heat transition scenarios for the City of Amsterdam. PhD work: combining Water-Energy-Food Nexus modelling with social research methods. Collaborating with an international consortium including TU Delft and Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Metropolitan Solutions. With this PhD project I combine my background in theoretical physics and cultural anthropology to develop actionable knowledge for the Water-Energy-Food Nexus.

Infrastructure for heat provision in the built environment needs to change remarkably to support lowering carbon emissions and achieving climate mitigation targets before 2050. We propose a computational approach for finding a mix of heat options per neighbourhood that minimises cumulative carbon emissions between 2030 and 2050, referred to as comm...
Sustainable energy systems can only be achieved when reducing both carbon emissions and water use for energy generation. Although the water use for electricity generation has been well studied, integrated assessments of the water use by low-carbon heat systems are lacking. In this paper we present an analysis of the water use of scenarios for heat...
The Food-Energy-Water (FEW) nexus for urban sustainability needs to be analyzed via an integrative rather than a sectoral or silo approach, reflecting the ongoing transition from separate infrastructure systems to an integrated social-ecological-infrastructure system. As technology hubs can provide food, energy, water resources via decentralized an...
