From 1992 to 2008, Nick Jenkins was at the University of Manchester (UMIST). In March 2008 he moved to Cardiff University where he is now Professor of Renewable Energy. His previous career included 14 years industrial experience, of which 5 years were in developing countries. His final position in industry was as Projects Director for Wind Energy Group, a manufacturer of large wind turbines. While at the University he has developed teaching and research activities in both electrical power engineering and renewable energy.  He is a Distinguished Member of CIGRE, and a Fellow of the IET, IEEE, Royal Academy of Engineering and the Learned Society of Wales. From 2009-11 he was the Shimizu Visiting Professor to the Atmosphere and Energy Program at Stanford University.

He is presently the Leader of the Centre for Integrated Energy Generation and Supply Research Group and the Energy and Environment Theme.


He is co-author of: Renewable Energy Engineering, Cambridge University Press (2017), Smart Elecrricity Distribution Networks CRC Press (2017), Electric Power Systems 5th Edition, Wiley (2013) Smart Grids, Technologies and Applications, Wiley (2012) Wind Energy Handbook 2nd Edition, Wiley (2011) Distributed Generation, IET (2010) Wind Energy Generation Modelling and Control, Wiley (2009)

Bywgraffiad

Rhwng 1992 a 2008, roedd Nick Jenkins ym Mhrifysgol Manceinion (UMIST). Ym mis Mawrth 2008 symudodd i Brifysgol Caerdydd lle mae bellach yn Athro Ynni Adnewyddadwy. Roedd ei yrfa flaenorol yn cynnwys 14 mlynedd o brofiad diwydiannol, gyda 5 mlynedd mewn gwledydd datblygol. Ei swydd olaf mewn diwydiant oedd fel Cyfarwyddwr Prosiectau ar gyfer Wind Energy Group, gwneuthurwr tyrbinau gwynt mawr. Tra yn y Brifysgol mae wedi datblygu gweithgareddau addysgu ac ymchwil mewn peirianneg pŵer trydanol ac ynni adnewyddadwy. Mae'n Aelod Nodedig o CIGRE, ac yn Gymrawd yr IET, IEEE, yr Academi Beirianneg Frenhinol a Chymdeithas Ddysgedig Cymru.   Rhwng 2009-11 ef oedd Athro Ymweld Shimizu i'r Rhaglen Atmosffer ac Ynni ym Mhrifysgol Stanford.

Ar hyn o bryd ef yw Arweinydd y Ganolfan ar gyfer Cynhyrchu Ynni Integredig a Grŵp Ymchwil Cyflenwi
