Dr Yue Wang

About

Yue has 8+ years of experience implementing technically advanced research and economically feasible solutions to real-life projects on renewable energy, electric transportation and smart energy management. To be more specific, after she graduated from University of Strathclyde in 2010, she worked closely with various wind turbine operators from 2010 to 2013 during her PhD and carried out original research of condition monitoring and fault prognosis on modern wind turbines, both onshore and offshore, based on their SCADA data. Since 2014, she focused on the integration of electric vehicles, renewable energy sources, and energy storage in the smart grid, aiming to demonstrate its technical and economic feasibility, and to facilitate the transition to a low carbon and sustainable economy in European cities.

Research

  • Application of artificial intelligence and data mining techniques to wind turbine condition monitoring and fault prognosis
  • Investigation of driving patterns and development of optimal smart charging and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) solutions using optimisation techniques
  • Techno-economic evaluation of renewable energy investment and business model development to facilitate the adoption of renewables and electric vehicles
  • Investigation of smart grid and micro-energy market to improve energy efficiency and cost benefit for involved stakeholders

PhD Supervision

With the increasing penetrations of renewable energy and electrified transport, this project aims to integrate the renewable power generation and electric vehicles into the current and future power networks. Smart charging and vehicle to grid techniques will be investigated to increase the energy autonomy, reduce carbon footprint and alleviate grid stress. In particular, more effective smart energy management strategies will be developed for different clusters of users with distinct behaviours.
