PI bio

Pierluigi Caramia was born in Naples, Italy, in 1963.
He obtained his degree in Electrical Engineering from the Università degli Studi di Cassino, Italy, in 1991.
Currently, he is Full Professor in Electrical Power Systems at the University of Napoli Parthenope.
He is a component of the "Task Force on Probabilistic Aspects of Harmonics" of IEEE Power Engineering Society.
He is a member of Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineering IEEE.
From November 2020 to 2022 he was Pro-Rector for Research and Innovation of the Parthenope University of Naples.
Since 2017, as delegate of the Rector of the University of Naples Parthenope, he has been a member of the Governing Council of the National Interuniversity Consortium for Energy and Electrical Systems (EnSiel).
From 2006 to 2008 he was the Scientific Director of the Power System Laboratory at the Department of Industrial Engineering.
He is co-author of several national and international papers.
In particular, his research interest mainly concerns power systems, traction system and power quality analysis.
He is a co-author of the book "Power Quality Indices in Liberalized Markets", published by John Wiley & Sons.
He is a co-author of the article “Deterministic Approaches for the Steady-State Analysis of Distribution Systems with Wind Farms” in the Handbook of Wind Power Systems, published by Springer.
