Luis Badesa
Welcome to my website!
I am Associate Professor in Power Systems at the
Technical University of Madrid (UPM)
and Visiting Researcher at the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering,
Imperial College London.
My research aims to facilitate a cost-effective integration of renewable energies:
I develop mathematical models to operate electricity grids and markets efficiently.
You can see a summary here.
