Faculty Biography

Dr. Kornyo has over 14 years of experience in the energy sector and IoT Sensors Automation including Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) Solutions and smart metering application management. He has developed state-of-the-art Database Management, software testing in the field of smart metering billing, data mining and simulation techniques in the Utility distribution applications.Currently a Lecturer in KNUST-Computer Science Department. Specialised in System Security and fraud detection techniques. A Lead IT Project Consultant. Was the CEO  and a Project Manager with E.E.K Consults & Electricals Limited, in KUMASI. The project Manager for the installation of ‘’Mini- off grid Renewable Solar PROJECT for total A.M.I energy solution in Yeboahkrom and Onaa, a project under the German government and UK Funding respectively, a community in the Ejisu-Juaben Municipal in Ghana. A total monitoring network system, control energy usage from the user point (demand-side) and manage the Solar Energy generation (supply-side) on community households to avoid energy wastage. Oliver also developed the National net metering solution that is being implemented by Electricity Company of Ghana for fraud detection as the company moves towards pre-paid meters. Previously, Oliver worked for the Electricity Supply Company, Ghana and the Ashanti Region Database Administrator for GEDAP Projects. This included System Energy Management of smart metering End To-End solutions, training on Energy conservation and Tariff Calculation principles for energy billing system and application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Smart Metering Solutions, database Security Management, controlling billing records for management. He is part of the Ghana GOALS team, surveying, designing and installing the Mini grids with solar e-cooking in 4 Senior High Schools and one community. A research fellow at TCC-KNUST Ghana.
