Martin holds a Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from TU Braunschweig (Germany). He wrote his Master`s Thesis at ETH (SusTec), conducting techno-economic analyses on energy storage across different geographies and applications and advising both a Swiss private equity investor as well as the external page Swiss Federal Office of Energy based on his findings. His research was supported by a grant from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).

During his studies, he gained further work experience though several internships, e.g. with Siemens (Erlangen, Germany), with the RWE Power AG (Essen, Germany) and with RWE Consulting where he worked on a project in Prague (Czech Republic) and was accepted for the RWE Next Talents program afterwards. Martin also learned about energy finance during an internship with NORD/LB in New York City (USA), where he worked on several deals to finance renewable energy projects.

In his spare time, Martin enjoys the outdoors, keeping himself fit with Freeletics and rooting for SV Werder Bremen.
