Ioannis Margaris received the Diploma in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) in 2006. In July 2011 he completed his Ph.D. thesis on modeling and control analysis of modern wind power farms focusing in large integration of wind power in non-interconnected power systems. He has worked in PPC on production planning and smart grid infrastructures for island systems. In April 2011 he joined the Wind Energy Department of DTU (Denmark), where he worked on his Post-Doc giving lectures in the Sustainable Energy MSc. He worked for one year on various Danish and European projects focusing on power system operation and stability. Since summer 2013 he is with the SmartRUE group of NTUA, Greece. He is an IEEE student member and member of the technical chamber of Greece.

The research interests of Dr. Sideratos focuses on two areas. The first area is related to optimal management of distributed production and renewable energies and the second area includes machine learning and artificial intelligence. Regarging the first area, Mr Sideratos has helped to create energy management tools under uncertainty. In particular, he developed models of short-term load demand forecasting for the Greek interconnected system, but also for autonomous power systems. he has developed forecasting models for solar and wind production as well as forecasting models for the HV or MV substation load with large RES penetration and for the secure operation of a power system. Tools also developed that improved the RES forecasting in extreme events when large changes in power penetration occurred. In addition, he has contributed to the development of tools for stochastic unit commitment and the probabilistic power flow in power systems with high RES penetration.
