Certainly doesn't meet WP:GNG and I'm seeing nothing that indicates he meets WP:NPROF. Not a primary reason for deletion, but article is also quite WP:PROMO and quite possibly WP:UPE John from Idegon (talk) 21:23, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This article looks very much like UPE. I would revert it back to this version, which incidentally is what made me think he's notable. Per scopus, he has an h-index of 77, and a total of 24417 citations. 6 of his papers on lithium ion batteries have been cited over 1000 times each, which I would say is a "significant impact in their scholarly discipline" (NPROF C1).
