Research Interests
The research focuses on advancing sustainable energy systems through the integration of renewable technologies, data-driven modeling, and energy management strategies. A core objective is the optimization of power distribution and microgrids, utilizing advanced clustering algorithms, machine learning, and deep learning (LSTM, GMM) to analyze consumption patterns, detect fraud, and forecast solar and wind irradiance. The work emphasizes the transition toward sustainable urban mobility, evaluating the technical and economic feasibility of electric public transport and solar-powered charging infrastructure. Furthermore, the research addresses institutional environmental management, developing methodologies for energy efficiency, waste reduction, and carbon footprint mitigation in educational and industrial sectors. By integrating multicriteria decision-making (MCDA) and hybrid energy systems, the studies provide actionable frameworks for policy development, infrastructure planning, and the deployment of clean energy vectors like hydrogen, ultimately supporting the transition to resilient, low-carbon energy systems.
Key Topics:
- Renewable Energy Integration and Microgrids
