Dr. Nisha Dagade | Renewable Energy | Best Researcher Award

Dr. Nisha Dagade | Sinhgad Institutes | India

Dr. Nisha R. Dagade  is an accomplished Assistant Professor at Sinhgad Institutes, Pune, India, specializing in electrical power systems with a particular focus on Distributed Generation  and Reliability Analysis. Her research emphasizes the optimal integration of renewable DG sources into modern distribution networks, addressing both technical and economic challenges through heuristic and metaheuristic optimization approaches such as Ant Colony Optimization (ACO). Dr. Dagade’s scholarly contributions explore multi-objective frameworks that aim to reduce power losses, improve voltage profiles, and enhance the overall reliability and cost-effectiveness of distribution systems. Her notable work, “Ant colony optimization technique for integrating renewable DG in distribution system with techno-economic objectives,” published in Evolving Systems (2022), has gained significant academic recognition. With a strong research portfolio comprising 10 completed and ongoing projects, 7 Scopus-indexed journal publications, and one published book, and maintains an active research profile with 61 citations, an h-index of 5, and an i10-index of 2 , she continues to advance innovation in the domain of sustainable power systems. She has also collaborated with IIT Bombay on research initiatives that bridge academic insights with real-world applications. Her professional memberships in IAENG and I2OR reflect her active engagement in the global engineering research community. Dr. Dagade’s work embodies the integration of renewable energy technologies for efficient, reliable, and environmentally responsible power system development.
