Olav Bjarte Fosso
Olav Bjarte Fosso (born 1958) is a Norwegian engineer and full professor of power engineering at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). He is known for his research on hydro scheduling, offshore/onshore grid and market integration of intermittent generations, and smart energy systems. He was elected President of the Norwegian Climate Foundation in 2015. He was a senior researcher at SINTEF until his appointment as professor at NTNU in 2002, and was director of the Department of Electric Power Engineering from 2009 to 2013. He was also director of the thematic research field "energy" at NTNU 2014–2016. According to Google Scholar he has been cited around 2,000 times and has an h-index The ''h''-index is an author-level metric that measures both the productivity and citation impact of the publications, initially used for an individual scientist or scholar. The ''h''-index correlates with obvious success indicators such as winn ... of 20. References ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Power Engineering
Power engineering, also called power systems engineering, is a subfield of electrical engineering that deals with the generation, transmission, distribution, and utilization of electric power, and the electrical apparatus connected to such systems. Although much of the field is concerned with the problems of three-phase AC power – the standard for large-scale power transmission and distribution across the modern world – a significant fraction of the field is concerned with the conversion between AC and DC power and the development of specialized power systems such as those used in aircraft or for electric railway networks. Power engineering draws the majority of its theoretical base from electrical engineering. History Pioneering years Electricity became a subject of scientific interest in the late 17th century. Over the next two centuries a number of important discoveries were made including the incandescent light bulb and the voltaic pile. Probably the greatest dis ...

SINTEF
SINTEF ( no, Stiftelsen for industriell og teknisk forskning), headquartered in Trondheim, Norway, is an independent research organization founded in 1950 that conducts contract research and development projects. SINTEF has 2000 employees from 75 countries and annual revenues of three billion Norwegian kroner. SINTEF has a close partnership with Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), started in 1950 when SINTEF was founded. SINTEF has expertise in technology, medicine and the social sciences. Alexandra Bech Gjørv is the CEO of SINTEF, preceded by Unni Steinsmo, Morten Loktu and Roar Arntzen. History SINTEF was established in 1950 by the Norwegian Institute of Technology (NTH), which was later merged into the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). It was originally intended to be an arm of NTH extended towards industry, where professors at NTH saw opportunities to build up a mission research business and used SINTEF as an instrument to do tha ...
