Welcome

The CUNY Smart Grid Interdependencies Laboratory (SGIL) at the City College of New York is a research group dedicated to addressing the growing interdependencies between the power grid and other critical infrastructures. Our focus areas include power system resilience, microgrids, renewable energy integration, and electric vehicles. Leveraging our expertise in power system fundamentals, control, operation, and protection, as well as advanced analytical and machine-learning tools, SGIL contributes to the national effort for a greener, more efficient, reliable, and resilient power grid.

  • We utilize our expertise with power system fundamentals to contribute to the national call for a greener, more efficient, reliable and resilient electric grid.

  • Prof. Mohamed receives the NSF CAREER Award.

  • We employ concepts of complex network analysis and AI to analyze and mitigate the rising inter dependencies between the smart grid and other critical infrastructures.
