Over the last two decades \, power systems have been facing new challenges such as the system unbund ling and consequent establishment of electricity markets\, the integration and coordination of distributed energy resources\, electric vehicles and active demand\, the protection of the infrastructure against cyber-attacks \; this new scenario implies to redesign the way current power systems are planned and operated from a control perspective. Among my recent research activities\, I will present some results about power system protection an d load control for demand side management applications.At first I will dis cuss the protection of power plants against destabilizing signals injected in the network by an exogeneous attacker\, which poses a problem of distu rbance decoupling in the context of differential-algebraic systems\; the s tandard decoupling methods are made robust\, in spite of poor information about plant parameters and lack of state measurement\, with the aid of an extended observer. In this way it is possible to keep the protected dynami cs arbitrarily close to the one of a suitably chosen stable system\, so lo ng as the dynamics being targeted by the attack remain within prescribed b ounds.Motivated by the differential-algebraic nature of power systems and the analysis of the previous problem\, I will also present some theoretica l results concerning the robust stabilization of a class of differential-a lgebraic systems\; the proposed control combines a partial output feedback control\, aimed at letting the system behave as a regular system\, and a robust control\, again based on the previously introduced extended observe r.Finally I will present the problem of plug-in electric vehicles charging control\, as example of the load management problems arising in the conte xt of demand side management applications. In its basic form this problem can be modeled as a real time scheduling problem subject to dynamical cons traints\; the proposed control leverages the general concepts of Model Pre dictive Control and is shown to be effective discussing some field test re sults achieved in the context of a european research project and technolog y transfer activities.The talk will end presenting my teaching activities\ , discussing their connection with the research activities\, and summarizi ng future research directions.SHORT BIO:Alessandro Di Giorgio received the Degree in Physics in 2005 and the Ph.D. in Systems Engineering in 2010. S ince 2007 he has collaborated with the Consortium for the Research in Auto mation and Telecommunications. Since 2009 he has been a Post-Doc and an As sistant Professor (RTD-A) at DIAG - Sapienza University of Rome\, and a Le cturer at Università Telematica eCampus. He currently holds a tenure-track position as an Assistant Professor (RTD-B) at DIAG - Sapienza University of Rome. On April 2018 he received the National Scientific Qualification a s Associate Professor (SSD: ING-INF/04 Automatica). Over the last ten year s he has taught Modeling and Simulation\, Automation Technologies\, Networ k Control and Handling\, Automatic Control.His research activities deals w ith the application of systems and control theory methodologies to the ana lysis and control of networks\, focusing on next generation electricity gr ids (Smart Grids)\; topics of interest include\, but are not limited to\, local energy management systems for demand side management\, integration o f wind turbines\, energy storage systems and electromobility in the operat ion of microgrids and distribution grids\, and power system protection aga inst adverse events and malicious attacks. He is the author of more than 2 0 journal papers\, 40 conference papers and book chapters on these topics. Since 2007\, he has participated in 10 research projects funded by the Eur opean Union (EU)\, 1 project funded in the context of the italian programm e Industria 2015 and 4 academic projects\, also taking the role of Princip al Investigator. The results of his research activities in the field of el ectromobility are the subject of technology transfer activities\, undertak en by the Sapienza’s start-up Applied Research to Technologies\, whose Ale ssandro Di Giorgio is proponent and scientific reference.
