Audrey Dobbins is research group leader for Energy System Modelling and Actor Behaviour Analyses in the Department of Energy Economics and Social Science Analyses at the Institute of Energy Economics and Rational Energy Use (IER), University of Stuttgart in Germany. She has a Masters in Energy Studies from the University of Cape Town and a Bachelor's in Chemistry from Northern Arizona University (USA).
She has worked at  an NGO in South Africa on improving the energy welfare of residents in informal settlements and developing and implementing Energy and Climate Change Strategies together with cities. Her work at IER, including her PhD research, has focused on energy systems, energy economics modelling, analysing the significance of energy poverty on the energy system through the application of an energy-economics model, improving the energy welfare of households as well as overall energy planning while achieving the energy and social objectives of the energy transition in the German context.
