Person
Dr Andrew Dixon holds a Doctor's Degree in Applied Mathematics from the University of St Andrews, Scotland, and a Master's Degree in Electrical Power Systems Engineering with Distinction from the University of Bath, England. He joined the National Grid Company in 1990, working in a range of technical roles in various parts of the company.
From 2010 - 2015 he was instrumental in writing and developing new tools for the National Control Centre, Wokingham, UK to assist Control Engineers, to enable them to calculate Frequency Response Requirements for the National Grid system in Britain.
These frequency response tools have been incorporated into a suite in the UK National Control Room and are used daily.
