Profile

I  finished my PhD career in June 2024 and am a Research Fellow in the group of Spatial Modelling and Dynamics. I focused on the coordination of electric vehicles (EVs) and the power electricity system in my previous research works. In terms of the unclear impact of the EV charging load on the power electricity, the temporal-spatial features of the EV mobility and charging behaviour have been established and analysed based on a real-world and large-scale EV operation dataset. Based on EV usage patterns in different periods, the power quality risk caused by large-scale EVs was simulated and analysed, while a real-time EV coordinated charging scheme was also proposed to keep the safety of the power electricity and the quality-of-service of EV users. Additionally, I am also trying to assess the environmental and healthy benefits of  vehicle electrification, that is what I am doing at the University of Leeds.
