Biography
Dr. Abdel-Galil is an Electrical Engineer with over 20 years’ experience in power system planning and operation of power transmission and distribution systems. He has managed and conducted many long-term planning investigations, generation interconnection assessments, and feasibility studies. He has strong background and experience in power system analysis (load flow, fault analysis, dynamic stability and voltage stability). He is experienced in planning and operation of overhead and underground transmission facilities with extensive knowledge of the PTI/PSSE, CYME and PSCAD software packages. Recently, Dr. Abdel-Galil participated in developing the long term bulk transmission vision for British Colombia, Nova Scotia and Saudi Arabia long term master plan. In Alberta, he has managed and participated in developing a long term transmission plan for Hanna and Red Deer regions and number of wind interconnection assessments in the central and southern part of Alberta. In Northern Ontario, Dr. Abdelgalil participated in several energy planning studies for First Nation Communities, mining companies, and the City of Thunder Bay. Dr. Abdel-Galil is currently managing the system study group in SNC Lavalin T&D, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Dr. Abdel-Galil is registered P. Eng. in Ontario and Alberta and Senior Member IEEE.
