Values and Principles are the top-most priority for me. I believe in optimism, physical & intellectual balance along
with a rational, systematic and responsible approach by respecting individuality, originality and creativity.
A renewable energy engineer with a background of electronics engineering & a demonstrated history of working
in the renewable industry since 3+ years. Skilled in Solar PV (on grid/off grid), offshore wind and energy storage
systems. Innovative re-designing skills and a strong believer in social innovation through technology.
Handled two major R&D projects involving state and central govt.
agencies (National & State load dispatch centres, National Wind
Energy Institute, IN).
The projects were namely
a. Solar Insolation and Wind Velocity and Power Forecasting
Using Hybrid Statistical Models,
b. Design of Smart Wind Farms with Forecasting Module.
For the first project, analysing various methods like Persistence,
ARIMA, physical methods and more advanced analysis
techniques like Artificial Neural Networks (essentially based on
historical data), Support vector machines (SVM) to forecast on a
short-to-medium term basis.
Successful development and implementation of Short term
power forecasting module (statistical model, ANN based) for the
state nodal agency with an overall accuracy of 82% (historical data
available was of only one year and season based modelling of
ANN was done) which was then used at all electrical pooling
stations in Gujarat, IN.
The second project was based on the underlying concept of
controlling the Wind Power production by dynamically following
the changes in wind speed and simultaneously incorporating it
using Smart Wind Mills, thereby calling it a Smart Wind Farm.
Involved simulating different size and shape of turbine blades in
various wind flow regimes and conditions. Instead of CFD
simulation we opted for Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory
and determined that an annual increase of 22% was observed in
energy production. And we were also able to publish our findings.
Nov 2017 Design and sizing of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) to
mitigate wind farm power deviations (Under review in ESS,
Intersolar, 2017)
