Renée Heller PhD is professor of Energy and Innovation within the Faculty of Technology and the Urban Technology research program of the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences since 2020. Before that she was senior lecturer in Sustainable Energy Systems within the Engineering program and the aforementioned research program. At the AUAS, she conducts research into the integration of EV, PV and heating technologies in the electricity grid, energy-positive areas, and building-related integration of PV. Renée graduated in physics in 1995 on the faster production of a-Si solar cell layers. She also graduated in general literature. In her PhD research at Utrecht University (2000), she conducted research into hydrogen storage in thin metal layers. After this, Renée started working at Ecofys, a consultancy agency in the field of energy saving and sustainable energy. Here she was responsible for the R&D of a spin-off company in the field of closed horticultural greenhouses. Heat pumps, heat buffers, soil storage, cooling and combined heat and power were combined into a system that saves energy and ensures higher production. From 2011 she was unit manager of the unit Built Environment and later Integrated Energy Systems. She has done many assignments as a project manager, including residential areas and business parks. At the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences she started in 2014 as project manager Bachelor Engineering in which she was responsible for setting up an integrated Engineering course.

Patrick Vasile studied renewable energy management at the Weihenstephan-Triesdorf University of Applied Sciences in Freising. Since graduating with a bachelor's degree, he has held various positions at Netze BW GmbH. Patrick Vasile made his career start in 2015 as an engineer for decentralized power grid planning at Netze BW GmbH's Kirchheim unter Teck site. In 2017, he was initially given a partial secondment to work on the TOP company project "Grid Integration Electromobility", within which he initially formed the interface between the specialist departments of decentralized grid planning and the project team as an expert. Since 2018, he has been working on a full-time secondment for the project - his responsibilities included project management of the NETZlabor "E-Mobility-Chaussee", in which the effects of electromobility specifically on rural network topology were investigated under real conditions during an 18-month practical test phase and which technical solution approaches distribution network operators can use to meet this particular challenge.

Since September 2019, Ulrich Aschenbroich is leading the E-mobility division of ABB in Germany, which was transferred to ABB E-mobility GmbH on October 1, 2021. He is responsible for sales, opertions and service for charging infrastructure from 3.7 kW AC up to 600 kW DC. In addition to product business, he is continuously developing ABB's solution business in the field of charging infrastructure. Here, the spectrum ranges from small fast charging parks with 2 to 6 chargers to entire bus depots. Ulrich Aschenbroich has been with ABB since 2007 and has held various positions, including marketing and business development in distribution grid products.

Christopher works as Data Scientist at The Mobility House to generate a clearer visibility over the flexibility assets such as charging stations and vehicles connected through the backend in the portfolio. In parallel, Christopher continues his work as a scientist with the ISEA Institute, RWTH Aachen University. Christopher's research focusses on applying machine learning and big data algorithms on public charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. Key questions are how the existing infrastructure can best be used, how future expansion is best placed, and how electric vehicles can positively interact with the electricity grid. Through the platform www.mobility-charts.de as well as appearances in various conferences, he is a leading voice on charging infrastructure usage in Germany. As part of electric mobility, he also focusses on buffer batteries and home energy storage systems. He has experience in the fields CAPEX/OPEX projection for power and gas grid assets, power grid and power market modelling, wind energy tenders, and renewable energy technology. He further has an extensive IT and programming background with projects completed in database management and back-end development.
