He was with KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden, as Assistant 2010-2013), and Associate Professor (Tenured) and Docent (2013-2017/August); where he lead the SmarTS Lab and research group. He also worked at Statnett SF, the Norwegian electric power transmission system operator, as consultant (2011 - 2012), and Special Advisor in R&D (2013 - 2016). He joined Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in August 2017, to continue to develop his research at ALSETLab. His research interests are in the area of synchrophasor technology applications; and cyber-physical power system modeling, simulation, stability and control. -### About ALSETLab -ALSETLab is the name of Luigi's research group and also the real-time hardware-in-the-loop laboratory being built at RPI.
