Profile

I am a PhD researcher in Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Leeds. My research addresses the decarbonization of transportation and power systems in the transition toward net-zero emissions. I focus on grid-scale battery energy storage systems, security-constrained power system planning, AI-based coordinated control, and dynamic stability assessment. My work also investigates coordinated energy storage solutions for electrified transportation systems, including more-electric aircraft and railway systems, to address sector-specific challenges such as voltage fluctuation mitigation, operational efficiency, and system stability.
