He made his diploma thesis during a six month stay at the TATA Energy Research Institute in New Delhi, where he prepared a life cycle inventory for cooking fuels in India.
Between 1996 and 2000 he worked on a Ph.D. project at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich at the chair of Natural and Social Science Interface. His thesis on the environmental consequences of food consumption has been awarded with the Greenhirn Price 2000 by the German Öko-Insitut. In this thesis he investigated food consumption patterns by means of life cycle assessment.
Since 2000 he works as a managing partner at ESU-services Ltd. with emphasis on energy systems and food production. He is Subject Editor for 'LCA for energy systems and food products' in Int J LCA.
His scope of expertise includes:
- LCA for food products and energy systems
- life cycle inventory modelling
- LCI databases
- linking of LCI and LCIA methods | | Areas of interest: | | consumer information | | biofuels | | energy analysis | | LCA for food products and energy systems | | LCI databases | | life cycle inventory modelling | | linking of LCI and LCIA methods | | bioenergy | | photovoltaic environmental health | | biomass production | | |
