Dr. Yahya Naderi (M'13) received the B.S. and M.Sc. degrees both in power engineering from the University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran, in 2011 and 2013, respectively. He was a Ph.D. Fellow doing research on “Flexible Power Quality Dispatch in Smart Microgrids” from 2013 to 2018 at faculty of electrical and computer engineering, University of Tabriz, Iran.

He has been lecturing in different universities, as University of Tabriz, University of Bonab, Islamic Azad University from 2013 to 2016. As a visiting scholar he then joined Department of Energy Technology at Aalborg University, Denmark collaborating with CROM (Center for Research on Microgrids) from December 2016 to July 2017.

He has been a research assistant with CROM of Aalborg University, doing research on power quality issues of microgrids focusing on control methods of converters and developing the Vicinity 2020 project test platform for IoT and smart homes from 2017 to 2018.

As an Engineer before getting his PhD he has worked as a part-time engineer, designing electrical facalities of residentail and commercial buildings in a consultant company for 5 years, then he founded and ran his own company, "Tavan Aramis Ararat", for almost 4 years which was in the field of UPS, stabilizers, batteries and other power electronic based power quality improvement devices.

He was an industrial researcher with Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom 2018-2019, co-leading "smart-Hubs" project in collaboration with Flexi-Solar Ltd with funding from Innovate UK. He has joined Strathclyde University (PNDC research centre) as an industrial research associate on power electronics and integration of renewable energies. In 2021, he got promoted to Research Fellow at "Aerospace Electrical Systems" at EEE department of University of Strathclyde, where he will lead specific areas of innovation in new power electronics based, compact power systems for a wide range of future generations of aircraft platforms, driving the attainment of new levels of system resilience, efficiency and emissions performance.

He is the reviewer for a number of IEEE/IET Journals and conferences and toic editor for sustainability journal.
