Biography
Kasım Zor is an Associate Professor of Energy and Power Systems in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Adana Alparslan Türkeş Science and Technology University and an Adjunct Professor at Çukurova University. His work is positioned at the intersection of electrical energy and power systems, renewable energy systems, and machine learning, with a strong focus on data-driven modelling and forecasting in modern energy infrastructures.
Dr Zor has authored and co-authored journal articles, conference papers, and book chapters on the application of advanced statistical and machine learning methods to problems in power and energy systems, including demand forecasting and the integration of renewable resources. He has international experience as an Erasmus exchange student in Electrical Engineering at Linköping University and through Erasmus+ staff mobility programmes at the University of Strathclyde, Aalborg University, and the Technical University of Denmark, and regularly participates in international conferences and activities in forecasting and energy systems.
Earlier in his career, he served as an officer in the Military Engineering Branch of the Turkish Land Forces after completing his training at Konya Air Defence School. Before his current academic appointments, he worked as a service and commissioning engineer at Rolls-Royce Solutions Energy, Marine, and Defence Inc. and as an electrical maintenance engineer in the Energy Division of Sanko Textile, followed by research assistant and assistant professor positions at both Çukurova University and Adana Alparslan Türkeş Science and Technology University.
He is a member of the International Institute of Forecasters and has taken part in funded research projects that apply artificial intelligence and machine learning to problems in electrical energy and power systems, including forecasting, system monitoring, and the operation and integration of renewable energy sources in modern electric power systems.
