Postdoctoral Researcher in Electrification of Long-Haul Trucks

5 days ago


Gothenburg, Västra Götaland, Sweden Chalmers Tekniska Högskola AB Full time

The electrification of long-haul trucks in Europe is a crucial step towards decarbonizing the industry. As part of the EU project MACBETH, you will contribute to cutting-edge research on electric trucking and real-world implementation of multi-point Mega Watt Charging Stations (MCS) hubs.

The goal of the MACBETH project is to develop and showcase MCS as a game-changing solution for electrifying long-haul freight transport. This involves creating and demonstrating multi-point MCS hubs along with tools to facilitate large-scale adoption.

The Department of Space, Earth and Environment at Chalmers University of Technology consists of five divisions, covering a broad range of research and education areas. The department hosts two major research infrastructures and employs approximately 250 people.

Main Responsibilities:

  • Derive future charging demand along the TEN-T network, logistics terminals, and truck stops with nearby depots from trucks and cars, and identify ideal locations for future truck charging.
  • Develop existing charging demand models that incorporate regional policies, grid constraints, and realistic charging needs.
  • Prepare deliverables and participate in consortium meetings.
  • Contribute to academic publications and present research findings at conferences and workshops.

To qualify for this position, you must have a doctoral degree in a relevant field, including engineering, data science, computer science, physics, mathematics, or complex systems. A PhD in a research field closely related to the project description is highly desirable.

This is a full-time temporary employment for two years with the possibility of extension up to four years. Additionally, the role can include a teaching component up to 20%, providing opportunities for academic development.
