Chrysovalantis Spanias

Chrysovalantis Spanias is a Research Associate at Cyprus University of Technology and works with the Electricity Authority of Cyprus. He holds a PhD in Electrical Engineering (CUT, 2020) and a Diploma in Electrical & Computer Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens (2010).

His research focuses on power system stability analysis, control of non-linear dynamical systems, and SCADA applications. Recent publications develop passivity-based frameworks for stability enhancement in modern grids, proposing novel methods for optimal placement of compensation devices like SVCs to improve damping and dynamic response.

Analysis of publications reveals consistent focus on bridging theoretical control frameworks (especially passivity-based approaches) with practical power system challenges. His models incorporate multivariable system dynamics to address stability in renewable-rich grids.
