Doctor by the Universidad de Oviedo with the thesis Synchronization, islanding detection and power quality improvement in distributed power generation systems 2015. Supervised by Dr. David Díaz Reigosa, Dr. Fernando Briz del Blanco.

Cristian Blanco (Senior Member, IEEE) received the B.S. degree in telecommunications engineering in 2010, and the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering in 2011 and 2015, respectively, from the University of Oviedo, Spain. In 2011, he was awarded a research fellowship by the Regional Government of Asturias (FPI Program). During his doctoral studies, he was a Visiting Researcher at Aalborg University, Denmark, from September 2012 to February 2013. He is currently an Associate Professor with the Department of Electrical, Electronic, Computer and Systems Engineering, University of Oviedo, where he is a member of the LEMUR Research Team and serves as the Coordinator of the STEPS Erasmus Mundus Joint Master. In 2019, he was a Visiting Faculty member at The University of British Columbia, Canada. His research interests include the design of green hydrogen generation systems, modeling and control of islanded and grid-connected power converters, integration of energy storage systems, development of hybrid AC/DC microgrids, energy management systems (EMS), and hybrid power plants with energy storage capacity. Dr. Blanco was the recipient of the University of Oviedo Outstanding Ph.D. Thesis Award in 2016 and the IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE) Second Prize Paper Award in 2013.
