Biography:

Régulo Enrique Ávila Martínez received a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from Universidad de Oriente (UDO), Venezuela (2012), an M.Sc. degree in Renewable Energies in Electrical Systems from Carlos III University of Madrid (UC3M), Spain (2017), and his Ph.D. degree in Power Systems from Universidad Pontificia Comillas, Madrid, Spain (2024). His Ph.D. thesis focused on the control of grid-forming VSC-based generators to improve the transient stability of large power systems with 100% non-synchronous generation.

He is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute for Research in Technology (IIT). He joined the IIT as a pre-doctoral researcher in September 2019, and, since then, he has been conducting research on stability studies and control system design for electronic power converters connected to electrical grids in both small and large signal stability analysis.
