About

Vidyadhar Peesapati is a researcher advancing the frontiers of high-voltage engineering, with a focus on the condition monitoring of critical power system assets. His work is particularly vital for the reliability of modern electrical networks, including offshore HVDC wind farms. A key contribution is his pioneering research on the operation of aerial inspection vehicles in HVDC environments, where he evaluated and mitigated the impact of high electrostatic fields—a crucial step for safe, autonomous monitoring of substations. Peesapati has also made significant strides in electric field mapping using electro-optical (EO) probes, a technique he has validated in known high-voltage geometries and applied to detect faults in cap and pin insulator strings. His innovative use of robotic arms for autonomous data acquisition in these measurements demonstrates a commitment to practical, scalable solutions. With over 11 citations across his most-cited works, Peesapati’s research is establishing new benchmarks for non-invasive diagnostics, directly supporting the resilient operation of transmission networks. His work bridges the gap between advanced sensing technology and real-world utility applications, marking him as a rising expert in high-voltage asset management.
