Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Sehloff is a Principal Energy Systems Engineer with eight years of experience modeling and optimizing power systems to integrate high levels of renewable and distributed energy resources. He develops tools for resilience, security, and optimal planning of electric infrastructure, combining machine-level power electronics insight with system-scale optimization and market modeling. A PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering from UW–Madison, he created and open-sourced a variable-frequency AC optimal power flow package and has translated those research ideas into practical analysis tools at national labs. His work spans analytical probabilistic power flow, large-scale security-constrained AC OPF, and implementation in Julia, Python, and MATLAB, reflecting both deep theory and hands-on code development. Based in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, he brings an uncommon blend of microgrid field experience and software-first modeling to decision-grade infrastructure analysis.
