Ramteen Sioshansi named IEEE Fellow

ISE Professor Ramteen Sioshansi has been named an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Fellow for contributions to the impact of energy storage in electric power systems. Dr. Sioshansi has made seminal contributions to techno-economic modeling of energy storage. His works develop and apply novel methodologies to understanding the role of storage in planning and operating electric power systems. These methodologies are used by storage owners, power system operators, and policymakers and regulators to make better operational and investment decisions involving storage, to the benefit of electricity consumers.
