50287463_85201_0090_instagram

Position: Ph.D.  Student, 2016-2020, (Electrical Engineering)

Research Interests:

Nader received his B.Sc. in 2013 and M.Sc in 2016, both in electrical engineering from Alexandria University, Egypt and Lassonde School of Engineering, York University, Canada, respectively. In addition, he received his Ph.D. degree with the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Lassonde School of Engineering, York University, Canada.

His research focused on increasing the green generation targets and supressing the environmental concerns through facilitating seamless integration of renewable energy resources and electric vehicles to power systems. He worked on developing advanced planning and operational control models to promote the safe transition of existing power networks into smart grids. Using such techniques, electric utility operators will be able to run resilient, reliable, and efficient power grids, as well as coordinating large numbers of smart gird components, such as and not limited to energy storages, distributed generation, electric vehicles, and two-way communication. Nader is also interested in the electrification of transportation system. He was working in a collaboration research with McMaster University to facilitate the implementation of electric buses into the smart grids.
