Biography

Reza graduated with all degrees from Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, a reputable university in the country. Based on his academic and ten-year industrial experience in the renewable energy sector, he published 21 papers (17 as the first author) in IEEE, Elsevier, and IET journals (Google Scholar). He has also proposed a centralized anti-islanding protection and control scheme in Horizon 2021’s Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions call based on battery energy storage. Although the proposal was not funded, it was selected among the top 20% of excellent works, i.e., receiving the “Seals of Excellence” certificate.

After 6-month visiting researcher experience in 2019, Reza rejoined IEPG at TU Delft as a postdoctoral researcher in the InterOPERA project. The project aims to find the probable interaction challenges of multi-vendor multi-terminal HVDC systems. InterOPERA is funded by HORIZON Europe and benefits from the support of 22 academic and industrial partners in Europe.

In addition, He is a member of Cigre and actively participated in WG
B5.83. He is also an Associate Editor of e-Prime—Advances in Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Energy journal (Elsevier).
