Professor Tejs Vegge

Professor Tejs Vegge is Professor at DTU Energy, Technical University of Denmark, Director of the Pioneer Center for Accelerating P2X Materials Discovery (CAPeX), a member of the European Commission’s Technology Council for Advanced Materials, and Vice Coordinator of Materials Commons for Europe. He develops machine learning and AI-enabled, transdisciplinary methods for the accelerated discovery of sustainable energy materials, including catalysts for sustainable fuels and chemicals, and next-generation battery materials. His work combines self-driving laboratories, density functional theory, machine-learned interatomic potentials and generative AI, and advanced characterization to understand and design materials under realistic operating conditions. He also coordinated the large-scale EU BIG-MAP project within BATTERY 2030+, helping pioneer materials acceleration platforms for advanced materials discovery.
