T Agami Reddy, PhD, is Professor Emeritus of Energy and Environment at Arizona State University. He is a licensed mechanical engineer with about 40 years of teaching and research experience in solar energy system simulation and testing, building energy inverse data analysis and modeling, energy efficient and green building technologies, and sustainable/resilience as applied to energy infrastructure systems. He has over 190 journal publications (three of which received best paper awards), edited four conference proceedings or special journal issues, contributed to seven handbook chapters and written three textbooks: The Design and Sizing of Active Solar Systems (Oxford Univ Press, 1987), Applied Data Analysis and Modeling for Energy Engineers and Scientists (Springer, 2011), and Heating and Cooling of Buildings (3rd ed., CRC, 2016). He has completed about 50 research projects with funding from organizations such as NSF, USDOE, EPA, NIST, Homeland Security, ASHRAE and several building control companies. He is Fellow of ASME (past chair of Solar Energy Division, past Associate Editor of ASME Journal of Solar Energy Engineering, and ASME Journal of Sustainable Buildings and Cities) and Fellow of ASHRAE (past Chair of Research Advisory Committee, and past member of Research Advisory Panel). He received his PhD and MS from the Laboratoire de Thermodynamique et d'Energetique, University of Perpignan, France.
