Henrik Johansson

I am a Ph.D. student at the Department of Electric Power & Energy Systems (EPE), School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS). My research focuses on power system protection and control of inverter-based resources. I am the first author recipient of the best paper award at the 19th IET Conference on Developments in Power System Protection (DPSP), held in Bilbao, Spain. I have been teaching in various courses and was awarded the Teaching Assistant of the Year pedagogical prize from the Energy and Environemnt (CENMI) students during the 2025/2026 academic year. My supervisors are Professor Nathaniel Taylor and Professor Xiongfei Wang.

I received my B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in electrical engineering and electric power engineering from KTH in 2020 and 2022, respectively. Before starting my Ph.D., I was a development engineer at Scibreak working on magnetic and dielectric design of auxiliary power supplies for HVDC applications of Scibreak’s VARC circuit breaker technology. Throughout my M.Sc. studies, I was a teaching assistant (amanuens) in several undergraduate mathematics courses at KTH and was awarded the Teaching Assistant of the Year pedagogical prize from the Electrical Engineering (CELTE) students during the 2021/2022 academic year.
