Hassan Nouri received the B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in electrical and electronic engineering from the University of Nottingham, University of Strathclyde and University of Plymouth respectively. He worked as an electrical engineer at Wye Electronics Ltd of GEC, Chesterfield, UK and he has held the posts of Research Assistant (Plymouth University), Research Officer, Postdoctoral, Research Fellow (University of Bath),  Senior Research Fellow, Senior Lecturer and Reader at the University of the West of England in the UK. He  is currently a full Professor at the Power Systems, Electronics and Control Research Laboratory. Professor Nouri has over 30 years of involvement in academic life with experience of research, departmental teaching, and administration in UK Universities. He was Chairman of the European Electromagnetic User Group (2004-2010) and he has served as an adviser on numerous Electrical Power Engineering Journals. He is an Editorial board member of many International Journals, and has acted as guest editor for a number of Electrical Power Journals including the International journal of Modelling, Identification and Control. He regularly contributes to international activities through the International Power Engineering conference organisation and committee. His extensive research interests have spanned several areas including Power Systems Analysis, Power System modelling, Lightning and Grounding modelling, Power Electronics applications in power-energy systems, Electric Arc Modelling, Fault Locations, Power Quality and Electrical Technology. Applications have been in the traditional power industry and Renewable Power industry. Over the years, his research has been funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, the European Union, the Royal Society, the British Council, and the Power Industry. He is the author of over 300 refereed technical publications and contributor to the "Encyclopedia of Electrical and Electronics Engineering- Volume 3" (John Wiley & Sons Inc, 1999) and "Engineering Superconductivity" (Wiley Inter-Science Press, 2001). In 2004 Dr Nouri received the IEEE PES Chapter outstanding Engineer award in recognition of his service in Power Engineering Research and to the UKRI Chapter.
