Reza Iravani
Edit ProfileCareer
He holds the L. Lau Chair in Electrical and Computer Engineering in same department (for two consecutive five-year terms from 2004 to 2014). After obtaining his B.Sc degree in 1976 in electrical engineering from Amirkabir University of Technology (Tehran Polytechnic), Iravani worked as a consulting engineer from 1976 to 1979. He then moved to Canada and received his Master of Science
From 1985 to 1987, he was an assistant professor at the University of Windsor, Windsor, Ontario. He became a fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers in 2003 for his “contributions to power engineering education and modeling, design, and control of power electronic converters for power system applications.” He is the Editor-in-Chief of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Transactions on Power Delivery.
He is also the chair of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Power Engineering Society on T&Doctorate Subcommittee on General Systems. He is a registered Professional Engineer in the Province of Ontario, Canada.
Professor Iravani is one of the pioneers in the development of the control and the operational concepts of microgrids and active distribution systems Rural Delivery&Doctorate activities of CAPE are mainly focused on the utility integration of distributed and alternative energy resources in the context of smart grid concepts.
His research interests include application of power electronics in industrial and utility electric power systems, distributed generation and storage, renewable energy systems, modeling and analysis of electromagnetic transient phenomena in power systems, and power system dynamics and control.
