Prof Dipti Srinivasan heads the Centre for Green Energy Management & Smart Grid (GEMS) in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, NUS. Her recent research projects are in the broad areas of optimization and control, wind and solar power prediction, electricity price prediction, deep learning, and development of multi-agent systems for system operation and control. She has secured over S$20 Million in external funding for research projects in these areas. Her current research focuses on the development of novel computational intelligence-based models and methodologies to aid the integration of the new Smart Grid technologies into the existing infrastructure so that power grid can effectively utilize pervasive renewable energy generation and demand-side management programs, while accommodating stochastic load demand. She has authored more than 400 publications which have been highly cited.
