- Congestion Management by Optimal Placement of Distributed Generation – Compared different methods for obtaining optimal location and size of DG to reduce congestion, obtain uniform LMPs and reduce overall operating costs in an IEEE 14-bus system modelled in PowerWorld Simulator.
- Evaluation and Simulation of Energy Storage for Wind Farms – Modelled a Li-ion battery in MATLAB/Simulink for storing energy from a wind turbine and simulated the charging and discharging operations at different wind speeds and state-of-charge of the battery.
- LCA comparison of Offshore and Onshore Wind Turbines – Performed the life cycle assessment for both types of turbines and studied the environmental impacts for generating 1 kWh of electricity using SimaPro software package, discussing improvements in turbine performance in each stage.
- Design and Control of Excitation System for a Synchronous Generator – Modelled a AVR-PSS feedback loop control, using TACS models, for the excitation system of a synchronous generator in EMTP-ATP to minimize the voltage fluctuations cause by disturbances in a power system.
- Mitigation of Inrush Currents for Power Transformer during Energization – Simulated inrush currents associated with the energization of power transformers, and mitigated its peak value using pre-insertion resistors, controlled switching and combination of both.
