Roberto Candela, born in 1970, earned his PhD in Electrical Engineering at the University of Palermo in 1996, then joined the Electrotechnics research group.

Since 2004 he has been a researcher at the same university, teaching Basic Electrical Engineering, Electrotechnics, and Fundamentals of Computer Science.

His studies focus on optimization methods for diagnosing high-voltage dielectric materials and on processing partial discharge signals.

In 2006 he patented a wireless sensor to measure them, the basis of the Pry-Cam product. Since 2012 he has been CEO of Prysmian Electronics, which under his leadership developed 25 patents and advanced solutions for energy asset management.
