Biography

Marcelo Elizondo joined Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in 2009. He has experience and interest in multidisciplinary research related to power system engineering in topics from transmission planning and reliability, HVDC transmission, cross-border power systems, demand response, to electromagnetic and electromechanic dynamics in distribution systems and microgrids. He leads projects for U.S. Department of State on regional cross-border power systems for transmission reinforcements, renewable integration, electricity markets, and stability analysis. He also leads efforts on modeling and use of HVDC systems embedded within large continental-level interconnections. Dr. Elizondo also helps developing planning tools for reactive power planning in distribution and sub-transmission for high penetration of solar generation, as well as developing electromechanic and phasor-dynamics simulations capability in GridLAB-D software. Before joining PNNL, Dr. Elizondo was an international power system consultant in Mercados Energéticos Consultores, Argentina, where he led projects on wind generation grid access, and was involved in the technical design of a new ancillary services market.
