Jip Kim is a doctoral candidate in Smart Energy Research Group (SEARCH) advised by Prof. Yury Dvorkin and an Ernst Weber Fellow at Department of Electrical & Computer Science, New York University. His research focuses on developing mathematical modeling and optimization algorithms to solve power system engineering and energy economics problems. He is now working on grid resilience and peer-to-peer energy trading at the distribution level.
During his MS at Electric Power Network Economics Laboratory (EPNEL) at Seoul National University, supervised by Profs. Jong-Keun Park and Yong Tae Yoon, he worked on a contract design and charging coordination of plug-in electric vehicles to enhance voltage security in distribution networks.
