Smart Grid is the emerging next-generation power grid concept that uses two-way flows of electricity and information to create a widely distributed automated energy delivery network. Read more
The way the smart grid is envisioned in the near future is as a constantly changing system where intermittent renewable sources and non stationary loads impose a turbulent system. Read more
Model predictive control (MPC) has long been identified as a leading candidate technique for control in future power networks and smart grids, because of its ability to handle constraints and optimize the performance or economy of the system. Read more
This PhD provides an exciting opportunity to develop a new way of addressing the challenges that power system network operators around the world face as energy systems transition to Net Zero. Read more
Nowadays, researchers have started to conceptualize 6G with the vision of connecting everything, transmission over mmWave and THz, and integrating sensing, communication, computation, and control functionalities. Read more
We are recruiting highly self-motivated PhD candidates in the fields of machine learning, energy systems modelling and optimisation, and renewable energy integration. Read more
