About
Jonathan Mayo-Maldonado specialises in control theory applied to power and energy systems, with a focus on power converter control for electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, and electrical machines and drives. His work emphasises new modelling and control techniques, alongside developing advanced fault detection algorithms to enhance reliability and resilience.
His research interests also include medium and low-voltage distribution network control, particularly under high renewable energy penetration, where he explores resilience through fault detection, power injection coordination, and active control prosumer paradigms. He employs both nonlinear and linear control methods from model-based and model-free perspectives, including data-driven approaches for power electronics, distribution networks, and electrical machines.
More recently, his research has expanded to address cybersecurity challenges in critical energy infrastructure, developing detection techniques, rejection mechanisms, and resilient countermeasures through control design.
