Projects
- WESA Data Link
- Bhagavathy, Priya (Principal Investigator) Chen, Si (Co-investigator) Melone, Joseph (Co-investigator)
- 05-Jan-2024 - 28-Jan-2024
- Photonic Supervision for Grid Resilience and Capacity Expansion (PHOENIX)
- Niewczas, Pawel (Principal Investigator) Coffele, Federico (Co-investigator) Fusiek, Grzegorz (Co-investigator) Melone, Joseph (Co-investigator)

- ERI-025_DepSys, £31,086
- Sims, Ryan (Principal Investigator) Melone, Joseph (Principal Investigator) Abdulhadi, Ibrahim Faiek (Principal Investigator)
- Through the PNDC's participation in the EriGrid programme I supported DepSys with an appliction to work with the PNDC to test its novel fault location identifcation solution. This proposal was to undertake testing and gather datasets at HV and LV in the PNDC's labs to train and validate the fault detection hardware and algorithms being used by DepSys. The application for funding was successful and was undertaken at PNDC, led by my colleague Joseph Malone.
- 01-Jan-2021 - 17-Jan-2021
- UAV Platform Development for Automated Asset Condition Diagnosis
- Melone, Joseph (Principal Investigator)
- Creation of a first UAV prototype integrating two sensors and a live demonstration to show the benefits of this technology in terms of improved imaging and accuracy of diagnosis, reduced operational risk, process efficiency cost savings and health and safety improvements.
- 01-Jan-2016 - 01-Jan-2017
- Virtual Electric - Extended Zero Emissions (EZE) Hybrid Bus
- Zafar, Jawwad (Co-investigator) Melone, Joseph (Co-investigator) Finney, Stephen (Principal Investigator)
- This project is funded by the Scottish Enterprise. In addition to being the PNDC/UoS activities coordinator for the 'Virtual Electric - Extended Zero Emissions (EZE) Hybrid Bus' project with Alexander Dennis, I am also responsible for the delivery of 02 work packages apart from instrument specification, equipment installations, PR events and participation in bi-weekly meetings. This has resulted in the installation of a 100 kW wireless charger at PNDC (the first of its kind in Scotland). The project partners are Alexander Dennis Ltd (ADL), BAE Systems (Operations) Ltd, Axeon Power Ltd and Scottish and Southern Energy (SSE) plc while the project values is above £0.32 Million (for UoS).
