"Let the industries & academia cooperate more to discover the new talents who have potential to create a sustainable future of the world"
Experience
I started my professional journey with power system consultancy companies, first in India (1994-199) and afterwardes in the Netherlands (1999-2005). In the Netherlands, I worked two years for Smit Transformatoren & then with KEMA Consultants. In 2005, I took a break from professional career and pursued my academic life at TU/Eindhoven & obtained first a master degree & later a doctorate degree.
Since 2011, I worked for two network operators (DSO) in the Netherlands, first with Endinet (Alliander) and then with Enexis. During this period, I obtained vast experience on network planning, practical power quality problems of the network users & risk management of the network assets.
In 2025, I decided to start my academic journey at the TU/e as an Assistant Professor in the EES group of the Electrical Engineering department. I am responsible for teaching and research activities (under the theme "Power Conversion") within EES group of TU/e. I am also responsible for the Power Quality course at EE department and the System Integration Project (SIP) for the Sustainable Energy Technology (SET) master programme. Besides that I am part of the admission committee of the SET master programme and also mentor for the SET students who choose to follow the specialization in the EES track.

Academic background
I obtained my bachelor degree in Electrical Engineering from Jadavpur University (1994), India. In 2006, I graduated (master degree) in Sustainable Energy Technology (SET) from TU/Eindhoven, the Netherlands. I continued my academic journey at TU/Eindhoven as a Ph.D researcher (at EES group of Electrical Engineering department). My PhD research topic called ‘Voltage quality of the future electricity infrastructure’. You can find my Ph.D. thesis (2011) using the following link: os-Bhattacharyya
