GM Shafiullah

GM Shafiullah is an Associate Professor at Murdoch University's School of Engineering and Energy, specializing in power systems stability, renewable energy integration, microgrids, smart grids, green hydrogen, and energy sustainability. His work addresses critical challenges in decarbonisation and future electricity networks.

Education:

• Doctor of Philosophy in Renewable Energy Engineering, Central Queensland University (2010-2013)

His research focuses on enabling technologies for 100% renewable energy systems, including hybrid PV-Battery-Hydrogen microgrids, distributed energy resource integration, and cyber-resilient power systems. He actively investigates energy transition pathways aligned with Sustainable Development Goals and large-scale electric vehicle impacts on grid stability.

His scientific contributions have been recognized with:

• Vice Chancellors Award for Excellence in Postgraduate Research Supervision (2024)
• Vice Chancellor's Award for Excellence in Research and Innovation (2021)
• AJ Parker Award for Outstanding Early Career Researcher (2018)

GM Shafiullah has supervised 17 HDR students to completion and currently guides 5 doctoral candidates. He has secured approximately $9.0 million in research funding for projects spanning industrial microgrid deployments, DER integration, and national energy strategy development. As a Senior IEEE Member and Associate Editor for multiple energy journals, he bridges academic research with real-world energy solutions.

His current projects address reactive/active power management with EV integration, cyber-attack resilience in renewable-rich grids, and translating SDGs into actionable energy policies, though specific lab structures are not detailed in source materials.
