Background

About Michael Bressan

I am an electrical, electronics, and industrial computing engineer specializing in renewable energy. Currently, I hold the position of assistant professor at the University of the Andes, where my work focuses primarily on energy management and renewable energy technologies, particularly photovoltaic systems. I received my PhD from the University of Perpignan (France) in June 2014, where I developed a tool for monitoring and detecting faults in photovoltaic systems. My research involved creating various algorithms to identify issues, including those resulting from partial shading in the system. I also gained experience in embedded systems through my work at PulsarInnovation. After completing my PhD, I continued my research on solar models to estimate photovoltaic production with greater reliability while working at the LAAS-CNRS laboratory in Toulouse (France). Additionally, I developed algorithms to manage energy flows between the photovoltaic source, batteries, and load to increase battery life.
