Mohsen Fallah, M.Sc.
Ph.D. student (Fall 2025), co-supervised with Prof. Michael Cada
I hold a master’s degree in Electrical Engineering from Islamic Azad University of Bandar Abbas, specializing in renewable energy applications for hydrogen production and energy storage through water electrolysis. My research focuses on renewable energy storage technologies, such as hydrogen and lithium-ion batteries, as well as geothermal energy optimization and other renewable energy sources.
I have extensive experience in overseeing electrical systems, maintaining industrial electrical equipment, and developing energy optimization solutions. With a strong foundation in both the theoretical and practical aspects of electrical engineering, my goal is to contribute to future research in the integration and optimization of sustainable energy systems.
