Henk Moll

Prof. Henk Moll is a Professor of Natural Resources for Sustainable Production and Consumption at the Faculty of Science and Engineering, University of Groningen. He leads research at the Integrated Research on Energy, Environment and Society (IREES) and serves as Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Integrative Environmental Sciences. His leadership extends to advisory roles including Chairman of the Advisory Board for GrEK (Groningen Energy Cooperation) and board membership in regional sustainability initiatives.

Research focuses on sustainable energy systems with specialization in renewable energy integration, biomass utilization, and environmental impact assessment. Key investigations include:

• Decentralized energy systems and grid balancing technologies
• Biogas production pathways and agricultural sustainability
• Substance flow analysis for resource management
• Sustainable design methodologies for built environments

Publication analysis reveals consistent focus on sustainability transitions, with recent work emphasizing renewable energy storage, circular bioeconomy frameworks, and user-centered energy system design. Methodological approaches combine technical analysis with environmental assessment across multiple scales.

Laboratory leadership includes the Energy and Sustainability Research Institute Groningen where interdisciplinary teams develop solutions for energy transition challenges through experimental and modeling approaches.
