Hamid Reza Baghaee (IEEE Member since 2017) received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from Amirkabir University of Technology (AUT) (Center of Excellence in Power Engineering and the most prestigious university of Iran in electrical power engineering) in 2017.
From 2007 to 2017, he was a teaching and research assistant in the department of electrical engineering at AUT. He is the author of three books, three published book chapters, 80 ISI-ranked journal papers (mostly published in IEEE, IET, and Elsevier journals), 60 conference papers, and the owner of one registered patent.
His book entitled Microgrids and Methods of Analysis was selected as the best book of the year in the power and energy industry of Iran by the technical committee of the Iran Ministry of Energy (MOE) in November 2021 and the winner of the Distinguished Author of the international Books award in the AUT in December 2021.
He has many HOT and HIGHLY-CITED papers in his journal and conference papers, based on SciVal and Web of Science (WoS) statistics. His special fields of interest are micro- and smart grids, cyber-physical power systems, power system cybersecurity and cyber-resiliency, application ofartificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in power systems, distributed generation and renewable energy resources, FACTS, HVDC and custom power devices, power electronics applications in power systems, power quality, real-time simulation of power systems, and power system operation and control.
Dr. Baghaee is also the winner of four national and international prizes, as the best dissertation award, from the Iran Scientific Organization of Smart Grids (ISOSG) in December 2017, the Iranian Energy Association (IEA) in February 2018, Amirkabir University of Technology in December 2018, and the IEEE Iran Section in May 2019 for his Ph.D. dissertation.
In August 2019, he joined AUT as an Associate Research professor in the department of electrical engineering. He is the project coordinator of the AUT pilot microgrid project, one of the sub-projects of the Iran grand (National) Smart Grid Project. he has been a co-supervisor and consulting professor of more than 10 Ph.D. and 12 M.Sc. students since 2017.
He also was a short-term scientist with CERN and ABB Switzerland. Besides, Dr. Baghaee is a member and Vice-Chairman of the IEEE Iran Section Power Chapter (Since 2022), a member and secretary-chair of the IEEE Iran Section communication Committee (from 2020 - 2023), and a member of the IEEE, IEEE Smart Grid Community, IEEE Internet of Things Technical Community, IEEE Big Data Community, IEEE Smart Cities Community, and IEEE Sensors Council.
Since August 2021, he has been elected as a member of the board and chairman of the committee on publication and conferences at the ISOSG, a member of the IEE Transmission and Distribution (TD) Committee, IEEE PES Transmission SubCommitee and its working groups of Reliability impacts of Inverter-based Resources, generation and Energy Storage Integration, Voltage Optimization, and Transmission Power System Switching, and also IEEE PES Subcommittee on Big Data Analytics for Power Systems, and IEEE PES Task Force on Application of Big Data Analytic on Transmission System Dynamic Security Assessment, IEEE PES Task Force on Resilient and Secure large-Scale Energy Internet Systems (RSEI), and IEEE Task Force on Microgrid Design.
He is also the reviewer of several IEEE, IET, and Elsevier journals, and guest Editor of Several special issues in IEEE, IET, and Elsevier, MDPI, and a scientific program committee member of several IEEE conferences. Since December 2020, he has served as an Associate Editor and Energy Section Editor of the IET Journal of Engineering.
He has also been selected as the best and outstanding reviewer of several journals, such as IEEE Transactions on Power Systems (Top 0.66 of reviewers, among more than 8000 reviewers in 2020), Elsevier Control Engineering Practice (in 2018, 2019, and 2020), Wiley International Transaction on Electrical Energy Systems in 2020, and the Pablon best and listed among top 1 of the reviewers in Engineering (in 2018) and both Engineering and Cross-Field (in 2019).
He was selected as the Star Reviewer of the IEEE JESTPE and IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) in 2020, commemorated and presented during the IEEE ECCE 2021 conference in Vancouver, Canada. he has also been listed in 2020, 2021, and 2022 editions of the top 2 of scientists in the field of ENERGY, ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING, and ENABLING AND STRATEGIC TECHNOLOGIEs according to the Science-Wide Citation Indicators, (reported by Stanford University, USA), and mentioned among Worlds top 1 of Elite Scientists according to Web of Science (WoS) and Essential Science Indicators (ESI) ranking since 2020.
