Shah Fahad, Ph.D.

About

Shah Fahad received the B.S. degree in Electrical (Power) Engineering from COMSATS University, Abbottabad, Pakistan in 2015 and M.S. degree in Electrical Power and Control from CECOS University of IT and Emerging Sciences, Peshawar, Pakistan in 2018. In 2022, he completed the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the College of Electrical Engineering of Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, P. R. China. In 2018, he won a fully-funded scholarship from the prestigious CGS organization to support his Ph.D. In 2022-2024, he worked as a Postdoctoral Research Scholar at the Missouri University of Science & Technology, Rolla, MO, USA. Currently, he is working as a Senior Power Systems Control Engineer at the ETAP, CA, USA.

He is an active researcher with several research publications including journals and conference proceedings. He also acted as a moderator for the conference ISIE2020 held at Delft. He received best paper award in PowerCon2018 conference held in Guangzhou, China. He has been a reviewer for various international journals that include IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Energy, IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, Applied Energy, and Artificial Intelligence Review. His research interests include coordination control of converter-interfaced distributed generators, hierarchical control of microgrids, application of control theory in grid-connected Renewable Energy Sources, and data-driven control techniques of Power Systems.
