Mohammadreza Aghaei
About
Mohammadreza Aghaei received a Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from Politecnico di Milano, Italy in 2016. He joined Fraunhofer ISE as visiting scholar in 2015. He was a Postdoctoral Scientist at Fraunhofer ISE and Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB)-PVcomB, Germany, in 2017 and 2018, respectively. He has been joined to the Department of Sustainable Systems Engineering (INATECH), Solar Energy Engineering at the University of Freiburg, as a Senior Lecturer and Professor since 2017. Later, he also fulfilled another two years postdoc in the Design of Sustainable Energy Systems Group at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), in the Netherlands. He was involved in several national and EU-funded research projects dealing with energy systems, energy flexibility, solar photovoltaics, and smart/autonomous technology. He is also an IEEE senior member.
Currently, he is working as a senior scientist at the Smart Buildings and Infrastructure group at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Norway. He is also the coordinator of an EU Horizon 2020 project “COLLECTiEF” - Collective Intelligence for Energy Flexibility.
He authored numerous publications in internationally refereed journals, book chapters, and conference proceedings. His main research interests include Smart building/grid, Photovoltaics, Renewable Energy Systems, Energy Transition, Energy Flexibility, Autonomous Monitoring, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Digital Twin.
