Kevin Jones received his Ph.D. from Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University in 2013 as a Harry Lynde Bradley Fellow where he studied synchrophasor technology, wide area measurement systems, and linear state estimation. Kevin developed the open source Linear State Estimator, now commercialized by several industry vendors, used for improving resiliency of real-time transmission control centers. He also developed the Analysis On Demand (ANODE) platform at Dominion Energy, increasing the analytic throughput of the outage planning team by more than 1000x. He championed Dominion Energy’s synchrophasor data program over the last decade and now oversees an organization who focus data-driven operations support and engineering analysis of time-series sensor data from the electric transmission grid, of which large load hosting capacity analysis and special studies encompasses increasingly more of his team's work. He has spoken numerous times on load growth, the perils of the modern grid, and AI's relationship to the grid.
