معرفی
Dr. Ben Potter is a researcher at the University of Reading, with a sustained record of scholarly contributions in electrical engineering and energy systems. His work is closely associated with the development and analysis of smart grid technologies, energy storage, electric vehicle integration, and power electronics. He has collaborated extensively with researchers including William Holderbaum, S. T. Smith, and T. Yunusov across multiple high-impact journals and conferences.
His research interests span a wide range of topics critical to modern energy infrastructure:
- Smart grid control and optimization
- Energy storage integration and scheduling
- Electric vehicle charging and depot management
- Low-voltage distribution network operations
- Techno-economic modeling of energy systems
- Power electronics and resonant converters
The trend in his recent publications shows a strong focus on integrating renewable energy and electric transport into the grid through intelligent control, economic modeling, and real-time parameter estimation. His work often combines theoretical modeling with practical implementation, particularly in the context of distribution network operator (DNO) challenges.
Dr. Potter has made significant contributions to the understanding of:
- Carbon impacts of electricity network investments
- Frequency response in complex power systems
- Design of axial flux wind generators
- Non-invasive transmission line monitoring
He has advised or collaborated with several researchers who appear as co-authors, though no formal PhD or Master’s students are explicitly listed. His research has been supported by projects related to smart grids, energy storage, and sustainable infrastructure, as reflected in his publication topics. He is affiliated with a research group focused on power systems and energy management, likely within the School of Engineering at the University of Reading, though the exact departmental structure is not specified in the data.
