Power Quality & Resilience Laboratory
Junior Mauiango is currently pursuing his undergraduate degree and has been a member of the Power Quality & Resilience Laboratory since Fall 2024. He was awarded an Engineering Research Fellowship for Summer 2025 to further his research on electric vehicles in smart grids. Congratulations to Junior on this well-deserved achievement!
Led by OU’s Institute for Public Policy Research & Analysis (IPPRA), on Tuesday, May 13th, the NSF EPSCoR-funded Socially Sustainable Solutions for Water, Carbon, and Infrastructure Resilience in Oklahoma (S3OK) project hosted its 5th and final Academy meeting in Oklahoma City.
Doctoral researcher Vinushika Panchalogaranjan presents her innovative research on wireless charging lanes for electric vehicles.
Dr. Paul Moses presenting latest perspectives on 21st century power grids.
Dr. Moses presented the paper “An Experimental Wind Farm Emulator with a Dual Variable-Speed Drive Configuration” on behalf of Noah Gruman (Oklahoma Gas & Electric Corp) and Dr. Clemens (Flensburg University of Applied Science, Germany). The paper was presented at the Intermountain Engineering Technology and Computing Conference (i-ETC) May 8-10 2025 hosted by Utah Valley University (UVU).
Dr. Moses had the pleasure of reuniting with renowned expert and former doctoral advisor, Professor Mohammad Masoum, Department Chair/Head of ECE at UVU. Professor Masoum kindly showcased UVU’s beautiful campus and the under-construction engineering building set amongst the incredible mountainside landscape of Utah.
Excellent presentations on the latest Artificial Intelligence research
Dr. Moses had the unique opportunity to tour the site of the state-of-the-art Engineering Building at UVU under construction.

The original experimental laboratory established by Dr. Moses in 2017 at the University of Oklahoma has steadily evolved, with an increasing emphasis on power system resilience and power quality. Before this initiative, OU had lacked a dedicated experimental research facility for power systems for several decades.
To better reflect the focus and identity of Dr. Moses’ research efforts, the group is being relaunched as the Power Quality and Resilience Laboratory (PQR Lab).
Also referred to as the Moses Lab, the group will continue to advance innovative analysis, practical solutions, and knowledge creation aimed at enhancing the resilience of power systems. These efforts are crucial in meeting the complex and growing demands of the 21st century.
Thank you to Oklahoma Electric Cooperative for hosting Dr. Moses’ students from OU on a wonderful tour of their solar garden facility in Norman.
Particularly, thank you to Nick Shumaker (OEC – Manager of System Engineering) for educating us all on the practicalities of integrating renewables and improving resilience of the power system.
