About Manu Rajesh

Building a Future-Proof Energy Grid for a Sustainable Tomorrow. I am currently contributing as a dedicated researcher at the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) Research & Development Center, Smart Grids Integration (SGI) team. Here, I leverage my technical prowess and analytical acumen to devise innovative solutions for the real-world operational challenges. My current focus lies in the realm of Grid Analytics, where I am delving deep into the intricacies of data-driven insights to optimize grid performance. Additionally, I am actively exploring the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in enhancing Smart Grid applications, striving to unlock new avenues of efficiency and sustainability in the energy sector. I am a Master's graduate in Smart Electrical Networks and Systems, a collaborative program offered by the prestigious KTH Royal Institute of Technology (Sweden) and Université Grenoble Alpes (France). I specialize in smart grids, renewable energy, and grid applications. Further enriching my skillset, I completed a Business Management and Entrepreneurship program at ESADE Business School (Barcelona), fostering my entrepreneurial spirit and strategic thinking. Prior internship experiences at DEWA (Distribution Power) and DNJ Energy equipped me with hands-on expertise. I honed my skills in switchgear and layout design, HV electrical panel assembly, installation, testing & commissioning, and maintenance for major real estate and power projects. Driven by a passion for agility and transformation, I seek to impact smart grid and renewable technology domains across various functions. Collaborating with diverse and recognized organizations in this field fuels my enthusiasm.
