Northumbria University, United Kingdom
Mousa Marzband (SM’17) received the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the Department of Electrical Engineering, Polytechnic University of Catalunia, Barcelona, Spain, in 2014. After his PhD, he joined the University of Manchester, Manchester, UK as a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow and then joined the University College Cork, Cork, Ireland, as a Senior Researcher. He is currently a Senior Lecture (Associate professor) with the Department of Match, Physics, Electrical Engineering, Northumbria University, Newcastle, UK. Due to the high numbers of citations for his research, he has recently been appointed as an honorary distinguished adjunct professor by King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia (judged to be the best university in the Arab World by THE in 2019). Furthermore, he was designated by Thomson Reuters as one of the world’s top 1% researchers in engineering. As a result of his high cooperation skills and his ability to supervise Ph.D. students, he was able to publish many reputable publications from the research thesis, which obtained high attention among the researchers of the field with over 5814 citations (H-index: 38 i10-index: 95) since 2015. From his previous grant (funded by British council, £186k, as Co-I), he has an extensive experience in home microgrids (including renewable based technologies. In addition, he got a new grant (£130k) that partially has been funded by Otaski Energy Solutions (£20k) and the rest founded by EPSRC in UK entitled “Optimal security-constrained charging network design for the future e-mobility ecosystem to improve network stability”. In addition, he received 2 RDF grant (2 ×£70k, Ph.D. full-funded scholarship and tuition-waver), 2018-2021 and 2021-2024. One QNRF-NATIONAL PRIORITY RESEARCH PROGRAM (NPRP13S-108-200028), entitled “Impact Assessment of EV Charging Stations and Regulation policies for upcoming Active Distribution Network of Qatar Utility Grid”, (2021-2024) has been secured and funded to the tune of $599,999. Recently, as a CO-I, his UKRI Future Leaders Fellowships, Cyber-INtuitIV, (2021-2026) ˜ £955k has been reviewed by reviewers positively. Also, 2* QU GA GRANT APPLICATION 2021, entitled "Efficient Smart Home Energy Management with Emphasis on Electrical Vehicles’ Charging/ Discharging Strategy" (~$200k*2) have been accepted recently. In addition, QNRF-NATIONAL PRIORITY RESEARCH PROGRAM (NPRP14S-0316-210058), “Resilience Constrained Optimal Operation and Planning of Smart Grid at Extreme Post-Event Situations Considering Smart Electrical Vehicle System”, (2021-2024) $540k+ $50k (funded by Kaharama company) + $30k (funded by ministry of transportation) has been submitted recently. Recently, as PI, his proposal entitled “Optimal scheduling of electric vehicle-integrated multi-energy system with high renewable generation” has been accepted under DTE Network+ founded by EPSRC grant reference EP/S032053/1.
