Benedikt Schwalm

My research interests as a research associate at the Center for Digital Energy include the development, testing, and evaluation of AI-based algorithms to improve alarm management systems in control stations and improve fault recognition.

I completed both my Bachelor and Master in “Electrical Power Engineering and Business Administration” at RWTH. I was able to gain some industry experience during my studies at Westenergie and thyssenkrupp Management Consulting.
