Applicants are invited to apply for a Research Assistant position funded by UKRI to develop a novel method for dynamic voltage support and customer privacy preserving edge computing. The position involves undertaking full time research in power distribution system computation control and data analysis. In particular, the objective of this research programme is to lay the foundations of a new, model and data-driven, power distribution control and secured operation in the presence of renewables. The methodology involves global model as well as data driven optimisation for reliable digital energy services.

You will carry out research programmes in power distribution system model, analysis, control and optimisation but not limited to so called Machine Learning or Cyber security application in energy network.

You must have a good master’s degree in electrical engineering, with Power and Control Engineering major or (or equivalent) for appointment at Research Assistant level and have previous experience in power engineering with emphasis on power distribution system model, analysis and control and large data processing in power engineering.The position requires the candidate meets the academic requirement to register for a PhD at Imperial College London. The candidate needs to spend six months of secondment in the consortium partner’s site in Denmark, Spain and the Netherlands.
