I am a research engineer mainly interested in the topological properties, the evolutionary processes of transmission and distribution networks and how the previous affect the vulnerability of the system. Other focal points of my work are the role of energy storage in the power system, the integration of variable renewable energy sources and the computer modelling and simulation of distribution networks and islanded systems.
