Renewable Power Grid Lab

Our overall research goal is to promote Renewable energy-dominated future Power Grids, i.e. Renewable Power Grids (RPG).

The RPG Lab led by Dr. Xingpeng Li at the University of Houston (UH) conducts cutting-edge cross-discipline research focusing on bulk power systems and microgrids. We leverage sophisticated methods in the areas of optimization, network science, data science and machine learning to advance power energy systems.

The RPG Lab is a part of the Power Electronics, Microgrids & Subsea Electrical Systems Center (PEMSEC) at UH.
