Mario Paolone

Mario Paolone is a Full Professor at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Department of Electrical Engineering (EE). He leads the Distributed Electrical Systems Laboratory (DESL) and is affiliated with multiple EPFL units, including the Energy Center and the Hydraulic Machines Platform. His research focuses on power systems, with an emphasis on real-time monitoring, operational aspects, protection, dynamics, and transients. He is involved in various academic and administrative roles at EPFL, including membership in the STI Academic evaluation committee and the EPFL Academic strategic committee. His work is supported by institutions such as the Swiss National Science Foundation and the European Union.

Mario Paolone is a professor at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, specializing in Power Systems, PMU, Fault Location, Energy Storage Systems, and Hyperloop. His research focuses on enhancing the stability and reliability of power systems through advanced technologies such as real-time simulation, synchrophasor estimation, and fault detection. He has contributed significantly to the development of energy storage systems for active distribution networks and the application of wavelet transforms for fault location. His work also includes the integration of renewable resources and the mitigation of lightning-induced overvoltages in distribution networks. Paolone's research emphasizes the use of PMUs and real-time state estimation for improved grid performance and control.
