About Maarten

Fortunately, there has been a significant increase in awareness of the danger of climate change and the need for the energy transition in recent years. Many people are trying to take more account of the climate and the environment in both their behaviour and consumption.

Although a climate-conscious lifestyle is beneficial and important, in my view a strict government policy with clear guidelines and standards is even more important in order to achieve our climate goals. As part of my work at CE Delft, I advise companies, NGOs and governments at all levels on how to formulate sensible and effective policies to protect the climate and accelerate energy transition.

I studied Physics and the History of International Relations at Utrecht University. After this, I worked for over eight years at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, where I gained a lot of experience in the field of European climate and energy policy.

Since October 2021, I am employed at CE Delft as a senior researcher/advisor in the Energy & Fuels sector. In this role, I can combine my analytical skills and extensive experience with policy processes to produce concrete and workable policy recommendations that bring the transition to a clean and climate neutral world one step closer.
