Hanchi Zhang serves as Assistant Professor in the Department of Electric Power Systems and Microgrids at Aalborg University's Faculty of Engineering and Science, Denmark. His research spans power system stability, high-voltage transmission infrastructure, and renewable energy integration with focus on practical grid applications.
Research interests center on HVDC transmission systems, lightning protection mechanisms for composite pylons, and electric vehicle-grid interactions. His work addresses critical challenges in overvoltage phenomena, transient analysis of novel transmission structures, and stability assessment of weak island grids. Recent investigations include gas-electricity integrated transmission systems and drone-based power line inspection safety.
Publication trends (2022-2025) reveal concentrated expertise in composite pylon lightning performance (35% of works), HVDC grid stability (25%), and EV-grid integration (20%). Key methodological approaches involve transient modeling, Monte Carlo simulations for lightning assessment, and feasibility studies for multi-energy systems.
