Research Areas

My research interest primarily focuses on the application of control theory to analyze and manage the dynamic behaviour of integrated power systems, particularly in the context of high renewable energy penetration. I am especially interested in developing robust and adaptive control strategies that ensure the reliability, efficiency, and sustainability of modern power grids. In addition to control design, I also work in the modelling and simulation techniques for modern power systems with significant integration of inverter-based resources and distributed generation.
