Vita

Dominik Coquette, born in Recklinghausen in 1995, has been working in Asset Management Gas at Westnetz GmbH since May 2019. He has also been a doctoral student at Prof. Dr. Martin Faulstich’s Chair of Resource and Energy Systems since January 2022. Mr. Coquette previously studied mechanical engineering at the Ruhr University Bochum, specializing in energy and process engineering. He focused on energy system considerations and energy storage technologies. He currently works on the integration of hydrogen in future energy networks.

Research topic

Die Treibhausgas-Reduzierungsziele der Europäischen Union bedingen weitreichende Transformationen innerhalb des gesamten Energiesystems. The use of hydrogen is a promising option for decarbonization, especially in industrial processes. Due to the influence of various dynamic factors (future energy demand, climate impacts, etc.) in conjunction with a less flexible and cost-intensive pipeline system, the planning for the initial development of such a regional hydrogen infrastructure represents a major challenge and is not possible with today’s network planning tools. In order to solve the challenge described above, the doctoral thesis will show how a regional hydrogen infrastructure consisting of generation plants, pipeline networks and various supply systems can be set up, taking into account the requirements for sustainable spatial development. This will happen in the format of modeling the hydrogen infrastructure in the Sauerland region, taking into account spatial suitability and resistance analyses. Points relating to the security of supply of energy infrastructure are also linked to the concept of sustainability in spatial planning in order to further develop the interdisciplinary understanding of sustainability. Based on the results of scenario analyses and the resulting hydrogen infrastructure planning for the region, general guidelines for grid planning are formulated to support the development of sustainable energy infrastructure in the future.

Vita

Caroline Andersen, born 1996 in Aachen, has been working as a research assistant at the Chair of Resource and Energy Systems at TU Dortmund University since July 2022. She previously studied spatial planning at TU Dortmund University and applied geography at RWTH Aachen University. She specialized in renewable energies and urban development. During her studies, she gained practical experience in strategic development planning and concept creation at NRW.URBAN and StädteRegion Aachen.

Research topic

Hydrogen is considered an important key component for the implementation of the energy transition and the process of energy system transformation. Spatial planning models and energy policy objectives must be taken into account for the successive development of regional hydrogen economies. In order to steer development in this direction and identify conflicts of use at an early stage, existing planning instruments must be adapted. Accordingly, a transferable evaluation procedure for the development of regional hydrogen infrastructures is being developed and applied.

Vita

Julian Leber, born in Duisburg in 1989, has been working at the Chair of Resource and Energy Systems at the Faculty of Spatial Planning at TU Dortmund since April 2022, where he is responsible for coordinating teaching, among other things. He previously worked at the same faculty at the Chair of Landscape Ecology and Landscape Planning. After completing his studies in spatial planning at TU Dortmund University, he focused on the analysis and evaluation of open space provision and open space functions and the link between the areas of accessibility and open space and landscape planning. He also gained a lot of experience in university policy committees. During his studies, he gained practical experience at the City of Dortmund’s Disability Officer and at the STADTRAUMKONZEPT planning office.

Research topic

As a result of demographic ageing, the proportion of people with disabilities is also increasing. Older people and people with physical disabilities are also among the population groups that are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change on human health. Due to urban climatic effects, this problem is increasingly evident in urban regions. To a certain extent, open spaces can help to alleviate these problems, as they are highly relevant in terms of climate adaptation and also offer the population spaces for recreation and social interaction. The doctoral project will evaluate the extent to which the five district parks in the Ruhr metropolis are designed to be barrier-free as part of the “Future and Home: District Parks 2020” project. The aim of the research project is to ensure that the parks are accessible and usable for all groups of people in the future in line with the concept of inclusion.
