Dr. Qobad Shafiee, Scientific Advisor at Hy-Gen

Dr. Qobad Shafiee

Scientific Advisor

Dr. Qobad Shafiee serves as Scientific Advisor of HY-GEN Solutions B.V., bringing over 15 years of research and experience in microgrids, energy hubs, and power-converter-dominated grids. His work spans modeling, stability, and control of energy systems — including cyber-resilient control of microgrids and energy hubs, as well as integration of renewables and novel hybrid energy storage solutions.

Dr. Shafiee's academic grounding in system stability, control, energy management, and grid cyber-resilience directly shapes HY-GEN's approach to Smart Energy, Digital Solutions and Energy Hubs, ensuring the company's consultancy is built on rigorously tested engineering rather than trend-following.

Dr. Abbas Ahmadi, Cybersecurity and Digital Resilience Lead at HY-GEN

Dr. Abbas Ahmadi

Cybersecurity & Digital Resilience Lead

Dr. Abbas Ahmadi serves as Cybersecurity & Digital Resilience Lead at HY-GEN Solutions, specializing in cybersecurity for cyber-physical energy systems. His expertise addresses how cyber-physical power systems withstand and recover from attacks. His work bridges control theory and cybersecurity, providing the analytical grounding for how energy systems can be vulnerable to cyberattacks, monitored, defended, and kept stable when digital infrastructure is targeted. At HY-GEN, Dr. Ahmadi's expertise supports the Security & Resilience principle underpinning the company's Smart Energy, Digital, and Energy Hub disciplines—ensuring cyber-resilience is engineered into digital energy systems from the outset, not added after deployment.

Advisory board

Three seats the bench covers.

HY-GEN's advisory coverage is small on purpose. The seats below are the disciplines already on the bench — named where a person holds them, described by the work where the seat is a coverage area rather than an extra hire.
