2026 Academic Conference on Low-Carbon Energy and Smart Grids
2026 Academic Conference on Low-Carbon Energy and Smart Grids
Dr. Bo Wang is a Professor and Associate Director of the Intelligent Power Grid Research Institute at Wuhan University, an IET Fellow, and a Senior Member of IEEE. He serves on the editorial boards of PCMP and Protection and Control of Modern Power Systems, and as Deputy Secretary-General of the IEEE PES China Technical Council. His research focuses on digitalization of distribution and utilization networks and electrical safety. He has published over 170 papers, holds more than 40 patents, and contributed to multiple national and international standards.
Prof. M. Prabhakar is currently working at Vellore Institute of Technology as Professor. The research experience is focused on developing, testing and implementing high gain DC-DC converters for integrating renewable energy sources to a DC bus. He started his research in the year 2012 and he have been actively involved in synthesizing more than 20 high gain DC-DC converters. The voltage gain of the developed converters range from 15 to 25. The test results obtained from the prototype versions of the power electronic converters have been published in reputed journals.
From May 2022, he is associated with Centre for Smart Grid Technologies (CSGT), Vellore Institute of Technology, Chennai, India as a Professor. In recent times, he is involved in synthesizing high gain multi-input converters. Presently, he is working on implementing machine learning-based algorithms to integrate the multiple photovoltaic (PV) sources to a common DC bus through asymmetric multi-input converters. This particular work is being funded by his university, Vellore Institute of Technology, Chennai, India under “Seed Fund Grant” proposal.
