Research profile

Amjad Anvari-Moghaddam (S’10–M’14–SM’17) received the Ph.D. degree (Hons.) from University of Tehran in 2015 in Energy & Power Systems Engineering. Currently, he is an Associate Professor and Leader of iGRIDS Research Group at the Department of Energy (AAU Energy), Aalborg University where he is also acting as the Vice-Leader of PESYS and the coordinator of Integrated Energy Systems Laboratory (IES-Lab).

Research interests:

- Renewable/Hybrid Power Systems Planning, Operation, and Control
- Energy Systems Economics and Markets
- Microgrids and Active Energy Networks 
- Sector Coupling, Integrated Energy Systems and Energy Hubs

- Modeling, Control, and Optimization of Power Electronic Systems

- Grid Interconnection of Renewable Energy Sources and Energy Storage Systems
- Operations Research and its applications to Energy Systems:

  1. Mathematical modeling
  2. Linear and non-linear optimization
  3. Risk modeling and management
  4. Sensitivity analysis
  5. System identification
He serves as an alternate Member of Council for Energy Efficient Transition at the Danish Ministry of Climate, Energy and Utilities, a member of Reference Group 5 “Climate, Energy and Mobility” for Horizon Europe (HE) at the Danish Agency for Education and Research (UFS), a Board Member of Energy Mission at Aalborg University, and the Chair of IEEE Denmark Section. Additionally, he holds the position of Editor-in-Chief for Academia Green Energy journal and serves as Associate Editor for several leading journals such as the IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, IEEE Systems Journal, and e-Prime Elsevier. He is an active member of Danish Standardization committee on Supply Systems for Electrical Energy (S-508), IEC Standardization Subcommittees 8B-WG3, WG6 & WG8 as well as the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC/SR-73, TC-8X, TC-95X & SR-120). Furthermore, he has contributed as a technical committee member to various IEEE PES/IES/PELS and CIGRE working groups, such as IEEE-CTSoc Consumer Power and Energy, IEEE-PES/SBLC WG P2418.5, CIGRE TOR C6.38, JWG C2/C5.06, and TOR C6.35. 

Acknowledged for his contributions to the field, he has been recognized since 2020 as the World's Top 1% Highly-Cited Researcher and the Top 2% Highly-Cited Scientist by ESI-Clarivate Analytics and the Stanford University, respectively. He has received prestigious awards, including the 2023 SPARC and 2020 DUO–India Fellowship Awards, IEEE-CS Outstanding Leadership Award 2018 (Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada), and the 2017 IEEE-CS Outstanding Service Award (Exeter-UK).
