Mattia Marinelli (born 1983 in Genoa, Italy) holds a master degree in electrical engineering (2007) and a PhD degree in power systems (2011) from the University of Genoa, Italy. Since 2012, he has been working at the Technical University of Denmark, where he is associate professor in distributed energy resources. His research interests include power system integration studies, wind and solar data analysis, demand-side and electric vehicles management, and distributed energy resources modeling.

Mattia teaches two courses at master level on wind integration and distributed energy technologies and is involved in four research projects: EV4EU, focusing on developing and testing V2X strategies; H2020 Insulae, where is responsible for the demonstration activities on the island of Bornholm on technologies for energy decarbonization; Danish funded Topcharge, where a new innovative storage system for EV fast-charging buffering is being developed; Danish funded ACDC, where he is leading the development of a new autonomous electric vehicle smart charging technology.

Since May 2022, Mattia has been leading a section with 26 researchers focusing on e-mobility and prosumers integration.
