Wednesday, January 17, 2024 2pm to 3pm
About this Event
Join us for “Next-generation cyber-resilient distributed energy resources at grid edge” a keynote presentation by Dr. Taesic Kim, College of Engineering – Electrical Engineering & Computer Science, MizzouForward faculty candidate. Dr. Kim will present on his research for approximately 40-minutes with a 20-minute question and answer session to follow.
Dr. Taesic Kim received his M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering and Ph.D. degree in Engineering (Specialization in Computer Science and Engineering) at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2012 and 2015, respectively. In 2009, he was with the New and Renewable Energy Research Group of Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI), South Korea. He was also with Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories, Cambridge, MA, USA in 2013. Currently, he is an associate professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the Texas A&M University-Kingsville (TAMUK). He directs the Cyber-Physical Power and Energy Systems (CPPES) group at TAMUK. He has received over $5.5M grants as PI and Co-PI from DOE, NSF, KERI, IITP, and Microsoft. He holds 2 U.S. patents and 100 papers in refereed journals and IEEE conference proceedings in the field of CPPES. He is a recipient of Dean’s Award in Excellence in Research as well as Professor of Year in 2021 from TAMUK, IEEE Myron Zucker Student-Faculty Grant Award in 2018, and several Best Paper Awards.
Dr. Kim’s research goal is to develop resilient and secure power and energy systems that contribute to creating a clean, secure, and sustainable world. His current research interests lie in the area of cyber-physical power and energy systems with emphasis on cyber-physical system security, power electronics, cyber-resilient power systems, quantum AI and optimization, and blockchain. He has been involved in both power engineering and security societies as a committee, working group, editor, session chair, and reviewers, etc. He has recently completed several cybersecurity projects for power and energy systems including malware detection for a substation sponsored by KERI, a quantum secure smart grid network design using PQC sponsored by IITP, and multilevel security for PV systems sponsored by DOE-SETO. He currently leads a $1.2M NSF project on resilient a cyber-physical security framework for distributed energy resources at grid edge.
