Dr Mohamed Elgenedy, BSc (Hons), MSc, PhD, FHEA, SMIEEE is a Lecturer in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. His research speciality and interest are power electronics applications for power and energy conversion systems including renewable energy grid integration—offshore wind farms and large-scale photovoltaic—and low/zero-emission solutions for the power grid—electric vehicle chargers and energy storage integration. His research interest is now focused on the Pulsed Power Generators (PPG) for medical and water treatments. He is currently teaching Electrical Machines (M3H625943) and Advanced AC-DC transmission systems (MMH624490) modules. Before joining GCU in 2021, he has conducted research and teaching in prestigious institutes including Texas A&M University at Qatar, University of Strathclyde, UK, Queen’s University Belfast, UK and Alexandria University, Egypt. Dr Elgenedy has contributed to several prestigious UK national and international research projects among which: Converter Theme (EPSRC, £2M), ESCROWS (EPSRC, £343k), Oil and Gas Platforms Electrification (NZTC, £240k), Water Treatment Generators (Qatar National Research Fund (QNRF), $300k), HVDC for Offshore Wind Systems (QNRF, $300k). Additionally, as a Co-I, he secured a (£500k) grant from the NZTC to extend the oil and gas electrification research.
