Namaste!

I am Nanda Kishor

I am a doctoral researcher in the Intelligent Electrical Power Grids (IEPG) group at the Electrical Sustainable Energy department at the Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS) faculty at the Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands. My current research focuses on effectively using electric vehicle (EVs) flexibility to provide ancillary services in the distribution grid. My research is funded by the ROBUST project, which received funding from the MOOI 2020 Top Sector Energy subsidy programme by the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy, executed by the Netherlands Enterprise Agency.

I was born in the coastal town of Brahmapur, Odisha, India, on 1 January 1997. After completing my schooling at D.A.V. Public School, Cspur, I received my B.Tech. Degree (with distinction) in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from the Vellore University of Technology, Vellore, India. I moved to the Netherlands in 2019 to pursue my M.Sc., and since then living here.

Research interests

Flexibility Aggregation in Distribution Networks
Control and Optimization of Power Systems
Electric Vehicle Integration in Power Systems
Modelling and Simulation of Energy Systems

Currently working

Multi-Agent RL for Aggregate EV Charging
Market-based Capacity Mechanisms for EV Fleets
Vehicle-to-grid for Commercial EV Fleets

News

I’m excited to announce that I will be speaking at EVS38, the 38th International Electric Vehicle Symposium & Exhibition, taking place June 15–18, 2025, at the Svenska Mässan in Gothenburg, Sweden. My talk will focus on how fleet owners can monetise their electric vehicle assets by participating in various ancillary markets, unlocking new revenue streams while supporting grid stability. [June 17, from 11:40 to 12:00, at the E-Quation Lab – Room G4.]
I'm happy to share that my article titled “Impact of Lead Time on Aggregate EV Flexibility for Congestion Management Services” has been accepted for presentation at PowerTech 2025, to be held in Kiel, Germany.[link to article]
I’m grateful to have received the NCCR Automation fellowship to support a research visit at ETH Zurich. During this visit, I will be working under Prof. Gabriela Hug at the Power Systems Laboratory, where I’ll collaborate on topics related to smart charging, grid flexibility, and system-level coordination. This opportunity allows me to deepen my research in real-world power system operations and contribute to advancing sustainable energy solutions.
