Arthur M. Breipohl
is a Professor Emeritus of Electrical Engineering in the School of
Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Oklahoma. He has
published three books and has numerous refereed and journal publications.
His research interests lie in power system planning emphasizing
probabilistic and stochastic models. Since joining the faculty in
1984, Professor Breipohl has helped build the power program into an
internationally recognized program that was honored with the EPRI Award of
Excellence from the Electric Power Research Institute in recognition of
the program's accomplishments.
He is a Life Fellow of the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers). He has served on several IEEE committees and as Chairman on
several IEEE Task Force committees: IEEE Task Force on Outage Data
Pooling; IEEE Task Force on Transmission Access and NUGs.
He has also served as a panelist on NSF Review Boards and chaired one NSF
review panel on ‘Research in Science Education’. He has served as Session
Chairman at several National Reliability Symposiums, a regional ASEE
Conference and at a Power Engineering Society National Meeting. He has
also reviewed papers for IEEE Transactions: SMC, AC, REL and PWRS and
served as Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Reliability’s Special Issue
on “Reliability Optimization: Mathematical Methods and Engineering
Techniques”. A listing of his recent paper publications is located

Dr. Fred N. Lee
was the OG&E Professor of
Electrical Engineering in the School of Electrical and Computer
Engineering at the University of Oklahoma until his retirement January
2008. He has published numerous
refereed and journal publications. His research interests lie in
electrical power system analysis and planning.
He is a Fellow of the IEEE
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers). He has served as
Chairman of the IEEE Power Engineering Society Awards and Recognition
Committee and as Chairman of the IEEE Power Engineering Society Working
Group on Multiple-Time Scale Scheduling Problems. Dr. Lee has also served
on several IEEE and PES committees. He has also reviewed papers for IEEE
Transactions: SMC, AC, REL and PWRS.
He has been honored with the
AMOCO Good Teaching Award (University of Oklahoma), with a Distinguished
Associate Lectureship (University of Oklahoma), and as the “Outstanding
Professor” (University of Oklahoma Students Association).
Since Dr. Lee joined the
University of Oklahoma faculty in 1985, the research program in electrical
power has received international recognition. His
most recent paper publications are listed

Dr. John N. Jiang
is an Assistant Professor of Electrical
Engineering in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the
University of Oklahoma. Before joining the University, Dr. Jiang was a
director for Providian Financial Corporation, San Francisco, CA. As
director (2003-2006), Dr. Jiang was responsible for analysis, security
pricing, trading strategy and economic research for a $3 billion
investment portfolio and corporate asset-liability management.
Previously, he was a consultant on various market design and operation
issues at ERCOT (ERCOT operates the power grid and electricity spot market
for the State of Texas). Prior to that, for nearly two years, he worked
for the Market Oversight Division of the Public Utility Commission of
Texas, on market design and monitoring. He has over three years experience
of risk management at power and utility companies. Dr. Jiang also worked
in the Renewable Energy Group in alternative energy and power control
areas when he was a graduate student at the Institute of Electrical
Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing.
Professor Jiang received his Ph.D. and Master of Science degrees in Power
Economics and Energy Finance (Power Economics and Energy Finance is an
interdisciplinary field of Energy Systems, Finance and Economics) from the
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the University of
Texas at Austin in December 2005 and December 1998 respectively. He
also obtained a Master of Engineering degree from the Institute of
Electrical Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and a Bachelor
of Engineering degree from the Department of Electrical Engineering,
Tsinghua University, China, both in honors.
Professor Jiang’s research interest is in
Energy Risk Management, Market Analysis, Strategic Behavior, Energy System
Planning and Operation, Economic and Reliability/Security Analysis of
Alternative Energy Systems, Market Design and Monitoring.
His most recent paper publications are listed here.
