Cecilia Sundberg

Cecilia Sundberg
Associate Professor in Bioenergy systems. Analysing environmental impacts of bioenergy system to enable systems with low or negative climate impact. Biochar is a special interest, due to possibility to provide carbon dioxide removal as well as other benefits. Research in Sweden and East Africa.

Teaching

I teach bioenergy, climate and sustainability at the Energy Systems Engineering programme.

Research

My research concerns climate impact and other environmental impacts from bioenergy, food, organic waste and biomaterials. In particular, I am interested in how biochar can improve the impacts from various complex systems, and the methods needed to quantify this. I have projects in Sweden and Kenya.

Cooperation

I am assigned as collaboration expert on climate impact of land use. I perform research and education on transtion to fossil-free technical systems in collaboration with a wide range of organisations.
