With seven research groups at various locations in Germany, Austria, Russia and China, he develops models, simulation and optimization methods for the design and operation of multimodally coupled energy systems of buildings, plants, cities and countries. By addressing the coupling of the supply of electricity, heating, cooling, drive energy, drinking water, and chemical forms of energy, costs can be reduced, environmental efficiency improved, and new flexibility potentials leveraged. Parallel to his work at Siemens, he holds the professorship for Technology and Economics of Multimodal Energy Systems at the TU Darmstadt. After completing his studies and doctorate at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering at RWTH Aachen University, Stefan Niessen was a member of the core team responsible for setting up the European Energy Exchange AG during its first six years. He acquired the necessary business knowledge with an MBA from Duke University. He then worked for ten years for a French plant builder as head of International Marketing and head of R&amp;D.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-8{width:75% !important;margin-top : 10px;margin-bottom : 20px;}.fusion-builder-column-8 > .fusion-column-wrapper {padding-top : 0px !important;padding-right : 0px !important;margin-right : 2.56%;padding-bottom : 0px !important;padding-left : 0px !important;margin-left : 2.56%;}@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-8{width:75% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-8 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 2.56%;margin-left : 2.56%;}}@media only screen and (max-width:800px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-8{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-8 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}<\/style><\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-flex-container.fusion-builder-row-5{ padding-top : 0px;margin-top : 0px;padding-right : 0px;padding-bottom : 0px;margin-bottom : 0px;padding-left : 0px;}<\/style><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-6 fusion-flex-container nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);background-position: center center;background-repeat: no-repeat;border-width: 0px 0px 0px 0px;border-color:#e2e2e2;border-style:solid;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start\" style=\"max-width:1248px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-9 fusion_builder_column_1_4 1_4 fusion-flex-column\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><div ><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-5 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1385\" title=\"autor-sebastian-thiem\" src=\"https:\/\/digitaldecarbonization.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/autor-sebastian-thiem.jpg\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/digitaldecarbonization.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/autor-sebastian-thiem.jpg\" class=\"lazyload img-responsive wp-image-116\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271000%27%20height%3D%271385%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%201000%201385%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%271000%27%20height%3D%271385%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/digitaldecarbonization.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/autor-sebastian-thiem-200x277.jpg 200w, https:\/\/digitaldecarbonization.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/autor-sebastian-thiem-400x554.jpg 400w, https:\/\/digitaldecarbonization.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/autor-sebastian-thiem-600x831.jpg 600w, https:\/\/digitaldecarbonization.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/autor-sebastian-thiem-800x1108.jpg 800w, https:\/\/digitaldecarbonization.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/autor-sebastian-thiem.jpg 1000w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/span><\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-9{width:25% !important;margin-top : 10px;margin-bottom : 20px;}.fusion-builder-column-9 > .fusion-column-wrapper {padding-top : 0px !important;padding-right : 0px !important;margin-right : 7.68%;padding-bottom : 0px !important;padding-left : 0px !important;margin-left : 7.68%;}@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-9{width:25% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-9 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 7.68%;margin-left : 7.68%;}}@media only screen and (max-width:800px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-9{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-9 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}<\/style><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-10 fusion_builder_column_3_4 3_4 fusion-flex-column\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/thiem\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr.-Ing.
