Paolo Molfino serves as an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Naval, Electrical, Electronic and Telecommunications Engineering at the University of Genoa, teaching Electrotechnics (course code 66015) for the Naval Engineering undergraduate program during academic years 2024-2025 and 2025-2026.
His research centers on High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission systems with specialized focus on sea return electrode technology. Key investigation areas include:
- Design and material science for reversible HVDC sea electrodes
- Mitigation of electromagnetic interference on underground power infrastructure
- Electromagnetic field measurement methodologies in marine environments
- Environmental impact assessment of electrode systems
- Reliability engineering for long-term electrode deployment
- Cost-benefit analysis of electrode type selection
Publications from 2019-2023 reveal a concentrated research trajectory addressing critical challenges in marine-based HVDC electrode systems, emphasizing material durability, interference reduction, and precision monitoring to enhance grid stability and environmental compatibility in coastal power transmission networks.
