Tobias Haas studied economics and political science at the FU Berlin and the University of Copenhagen (Denmark). In his doctorate at the Eberhard-Karls-University in Tuebingen he dealt with the controversies about the energy transition in Germany, Spain and in the European context. Since November 2017 he has been working (part-time) at the Research Centre for Environmental Policy at the FU Berlin (FFU) in a project on transport system transformation. In the summer of 2018, he was a fellow at the Kolleg Postwachstumsgesellschaften at the Friedrich-Schiller-University in Jena and has developed ideas on the extent to which post-growth debates can inspire the transport transformation (Verkehrswende). From 2018 to May 2022, he worked as a research associate at the IASS in the project "Social Transformation and Policy Advice in Lusatia" and since April 2022 in the project CO2 Removal Synthesis and Transfer Project (CDRSynTra) within the research group "Planetary Geopolitics and Geoengineering".
