Cross the border and move the limits for green energy
Denmark has a long and proud history with renewable energy and a unique position in green technologies, hydrogen, and e-fuels. That means you will find strong competencies across the entire hydrogen value chain and production of e-fuels here, and you can contribute to the corner of Power-to-X research that makes you tick.
Combine that with world-class researchers and a strong tradition for public-private partnerships, and you have the ideal conditions for doing research that can move boundaries and make a lasting impact on the world.
Daniel Rasmussen
PhD fellowship in electrocatalysis
This project is part of the X3 trail of CAPeX, “Sustainable Commodity and Specialty Chemicals”, led by ICN2-supervisor Professor Maria Escudero Escribano. New chemical processes are needed for sustainable production of commodity chemicals in a post-fossil society. This includes many chemical building blocks containing nitrogen and carbon such as alanine and other amino acids, urea, methylamine, and acetonitrile, to name a few. Direct electrochemical synthesis of these compounds by C-N bond formation is a growing field, but for sufficiently selective and efficient processes, we need better understanding of the catalytic mechanisms. The PhD candidate’s duties will include synthesis and preparation of electrocatalyst materials, electrochemical testing and product quantification, in-situ and ex-situ materials characterization, and data treatment. Focus will be on mechanistic insight obtained via model systems such as single crystals, in-situ spectroscopic techniques and electrochemistry - mass spectrometry.
One or more Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in IT Projects and IT Project Management
Recipient of the Villum Kann Rasmussen Professorship, Bent Flyvbjerg's research group at The Danish Institute for IT Program Management is seeking one or more Postdoctoral candidates. The main areas of research are IT projects and IT program management. Applicants are not required to have research experience in these fields. Candidates with backgrounds in statistics, economics, business administration, geography, biology, engineering, physics, or similar fields are encouraged to apply. The Postdoctoral Research Fellow will be responsible for both their own research and publications, as well as supporting other research activities within DIIP, predominantly those of VKR Professor Bent Flyvbjerg.
Two DTU Tenure Track Assistant/Associate Professors in AI4Science and AI4Materials
The Tenure Track Professors will be anchored in the two large-scale and long-term Pioneer Centers for Accelerating P2X Materials Discovery (CAPeX) and Artificial Intelligence (P1) and have joint affiliation at both departments (see descriptions of the departments and pioneer centers below).
PhD scholarship in Dynamic Properties in Electrolyte Solutions
This PhD project is part of the ERC Consolidator Grant “Revolutionizing molecular thermodynamics by water and electrolytes (REMOTE)”, which aims to unravel the intricate relationships between fluid structures, molecular interactions, and macroscopic properties, deepen the fundamental understanding of molecular thermodynamics, and realize the importance of different types of properties in selecting the most physically sound thermodynamic model for water and electrolytes.
PhD scholarship in Li-Metal all Solid-State Battery with Ceramic Electrolyte
The aim of the PhD work is to fabricate a solid-state Li metal battery with a performance at par with the state-of-the-art liquid electrolyte Li-ion battery. This would be achieved by obtaining a better understanding of cathode-electrolyte interfacial integrity and dendrite growth mechanisms.
Two Associate Professor positions within Life Cycle Engineering and Energy System
The Center of Life Cycle Engineering in the Department of Green Technology at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) invites applications for two Associate Professor positions: (1) One position within Life Cycle Engineering and (2) One position within Energy System Analysis.
Postdoc Position in the field of batteries at Centre for Industrial Electronics
The Faculty of Engineering at the University of Southern Denmark invites applications for a 2-year position as a Postdoc in the area of energy storage with a strong interest in AI, battery technology, industrial applications and cooperation for the campus in Sønderborg.
PhD scholarship in multiscale modelling of corrosion processes in molten salts
You will break new ground in developing cutting-edge multiscale methods to accurately describe the initiation and propagation of corrosion at the interface between metals (e.g., Ni) and molten salts (FLiNaK). These systems are gaining interest for their potential in molten salt nuclear reactors.
Postdoc in High-Power Planar Magnetic Components
The GreenMag project aims to revolutionize the high-power magnetic components (HPMCs) industry with innovative planar magnetic technologies that are more efficient, affordable, and sustainable. As global electrification accelerates, outdated HPMC designs and manufacturing processes hinder renewable energy adoption and efficient electricity consumption.
Postdoc in battery research for the Center for Sustainable Energy Materials
You will become a central member of the Center for Sustainable Energy Materials (CenseMat), which aims to create novel energy materials based on abundant elements through control of disorder in crystalline materials.
PhD scholarship in modeling of the next generation permanent magnets
In this PhD-project we will model ideal structures of magnetic materials to investigate if we can realize a new magnet with superior properties compared to the best magnets available today.
What makes your engine run?
We don’t have to tell you that excelling in Power-to-X is about optimising the complex interplay between the production and consumption of green energy and the critical infrastructure that connects everything.
But did you know that Denmark is strongly represented in all aspects of Power-to-X? This includes deep expertise in wind energy, innovative electrolyser technologies, an ambitious transport sector, extensive district heating grids, and first-class technology providers.
Whether you focus on the production, consumption, or distribution aspects of Power-to-X, Denmark is the ideal place to pursue your ambitions.
