Jean Sumaili

I graduated in Applied Sciences (Electricity) from the University of Kinshasa, Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, in 1998, and received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the Politecnico di Torino, Turin, Italy, in 2004 and 2008, respectively.

For 15 months, I collaborated as a Research Assistant on a project co-funded by Regione Piemonte and Politecnico di Torino – Dipartimento di Ingegneria Elettrica (PVENAS - A procedure based on experimental testing and meteo-database processing to assess the yearly energy production of grid-connected photovoltaic systems) on assessment of solar plant performances.

Since July 2009, I am working as a Senior Research with the Centre of Power and Energy.

Power and Energy Systems

The Centre for Power and Energy Systems (CPES) is a global reference in the large-scale integration of renewable-based electricity generation into the power system.We research and develop advanced solutions that enable the monitoring, control, optimisation, and forecasting of electricity production and consumption, as well as multi-energy systems. Our work supports the decarbonisation of the energy system, the electrification of society, and the large-scale integration of renewables, making power grids more flexible, intelligent, and resilient.Our research results include models, methodologies, hardware, and software (much of it open source) designed for various energy sector stakeholders, including citizens, communities, service providers, system operators, regulators, policy-makers, and governmental bodies.We operate a Smart Grids and Electric Vehicles Laboratory – the X-Energy Lab (link) – where we validate technological advancements in real-world conditions, ensuring that our solutions have a tangible impact on the energy sector.Thanks to our expertise, we hold a prominent role in both national and international projects supporting the energy transition, while also providing direct services to key players in the electricity sector.
