Biography:Ross Baldick
Ross Baldick is an American professor emeritus of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. He is an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) fellow of power and energy society. He is the chairman of the System Economics Sub-Committee of the IEEE Power Engineering and an associate editor of IEEE Transactions on Power Systems.
His research interests are optimization and economic theory application to electric power system operations, public policy, and technical issues related to electric transmission under deregulation.
Education and career
He received his bachelor of science in mathematics and physics and bachelor of engineering in electrical engineering from the University of Sydney, Australia in 1983 and 1985, respectively. He received his Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy in electrical engineering and computer sciences from University of California, Berkeley in 1988 and 1990, respectively. From 1991-1992, after completing his doctoral studies, he worked as a post-doctoral fellow at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. From 1992 to 1993, he was an assistant professor at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Worcester, MA. In 1993, Baldick joined the University of Texas at Austin faculty, where he remained until his retirement in 2021.[1][2]
Research
Baldick's research interests in electric power span across multiple areas, and he has contributed to over one hundred peer-reviewed journal articles.[3]
Baldick's research focuses on optimization and economic theory applied to electric power system operations and the public policy and technical issues associated with electric transmission under deregulation. He has published numerous articles on these topics and is the author of the textbook "Applied Optimization: Formulation and Algorithms for Engineering Systems."[4][5]
Honors and awards
In 2008, Baldick was named an IEEE Fellow for his contributions to analyzing and optimizing electric power systems.[6]
In addition to being named an IEEE Fellow, Baldick has received the 2014 IEEE Power and Energy Society Outstanding Engineering Educator Award and the 2016 IEEE PES Prize Paper Award.[7][8]
