Distributed Photovoltaic Grid Transformers

Hemchandra Madhusudan Shertukde holds a B.Tech from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, as well as an MS and Ph.D in electrical engineering with a specialty in controls and systems engineering from the University of Connecticut, Storrs, USA. Currently, he is professor of electrical and computer engineering for the College of Engineering, Technology, and Architecture (CETA) at University of Hartford, Connecticut, USA. He was also senior lecturer at the Yale School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS), New Haven, Connecticut, USA. The principal inventor of two commercialized patents, he has published several journal articles and written two solo books. Dr. Shertukde is the recipient of the 2017 IEEE EAB/SA Standards Education Award, 2017 IEEE-PES CT Chapter Outstanding Engineer Award, and the 2016 IEEE Award as the Chair of the Working Group C.5.159. He continues to be in leadership positions for several other Working Groups enabling IEEE-TC to publish different standards and User's Guides for Electrical Power Transformers.
