PD Dr.-Ing. Markus Blesl, born in 1968, studied physics at the universities of Tübingen and Stuttgart and received his doctorate in energy engineering from the University of Stuttgart in 2002. In 2014 he habilitated and received venia legendi for the subject Energy Systems and Technology Analysis. He heads the Department of System Analytical Methods and Heat Market (SAM) at the Institute of Energy Economics and Rational Energy Use (IER) at the University of Stuttgart.

Dr.-Ing. Alois Kessler, born in 1965, studied mechanical engineering at the University of Stuttgart and earned a part-time doctorate in 1997. From 1992 to 2000, he was employed as a power plant engineer at EVS AG and later at EnBW Kraftwerke AG. Since 2000 he has been a senior consultant and since 2015 team leader for research and development at EnBW AG and since 2012 a lecturer for energy efficiency at the University of Stuttgart.
