Last week on Monday, the defense of Sonja Baumgartner's doctoral thesis took place at the Technical University of Munich. Under the supervision of Prof. Dr.-Ing. Stephanie Uhrig (Research Area: Electrical Power Engineering), her direct supervisor and Prof. Dr.-Ing. Rolf Witzmann from TUM, she worked intensively on a highly relevant topic: the development of a low-voltage control solution for switchable consumer devices.

Sonja's work has met with great recognition and has laid important foundations for future applications in energy distribution. We are delighted that Sonja Baumgartner is now working for LEW Verteilnetz GmbH and will continue to be available to our team as a contact person in the 'Ensure' research project. In her role, she will contribute valuable knowledge from her doctoral thesis to the project and help us to develop practical solutions for the challenges of the energy transition.

The entire team congratulates Sonja on her successful defense and looks forward to the next steps together in the “Ensure” project!
