About this position
AAU Energy at Aalborg University in Denmark is advertising PhD and postdoc opportunities in digital twin research for Power-to-X processes.
The positions sit within a growing research environment focused on sustainable and resilient energy systems and are connected to the CAPEX Pioneer Center with cross-institutional collaboration. The research theme combines data-driven and physics-based digital twins with emphasis on modelling, control, optimization, and real-time implementation.
Relevant topics include electrical power conversion, power electronics, transmission and distribution systems, grid dynamics and stability, electrochemistry, thermochemistry, catalysis, water electrolysis, renewable energy production and storage, system optimization, and grid integration of P2X systems. The post also mentions real-time simulation and hardware-/software-in-the-loop approaches.
The announcement includes a Postdoc Position in System Optimization Using Digital Twin for Power-to-X processes and a PhD Stipend in Digital Twin Modelling and Multi-Timescale Optimization of Electrolysis Systems. The location is Aalborg, Denmark, with a start date of December 1, 2026 or as soon as possible.
The deadline is October 16, 2026. Interested candidates should follow the linked position pages and submit applications through the relevant portal.
