Electric Power System Basics – Understanding How the Bulk Electric Power System Works
Electric Power System Basics – Understanding How the Bulk Electric Power System Works 600 400 ieeeeduweek

This course will provide a fundamental foundation in electric power systems, from basic formulas to the planning, operations, and equipment involved in generating, transmitting, and distributing electric power. Basic electrical terminology will be explained in simple-to-understand language with regard to design, construction, operation and maintenance of power plants, substations, and transmission and distribution lines.

Advances to Grid-Forming Technology for Blackstart, Restoration, and Fault Ride-Through Capability of IBR
Advances to Grid-Forming Technology for Blackstart, Restoration, and Fault Ride-Through Capability of IBR 600 400 ieeeeduweek

To achieve ultra-high penetrations of converter-based resources, wind and photovoltaic power plants will be required to blackstart bulk power systems and withstand severe restoration transients. If these resources are not able to restore a power system, their incorporation into electric grids could be limited by blackstart capability.

LVRT Current Requirements of Grid Codes for IBRs: Blind Spots and Solutions
LVRT Current Requirements of Grid Codes for IBRs: Blind Spots and Solutions 600 400 ieeeeduweek

Modern grid codes (GCs) require that inverter-based resources (IBRs) inject both positive- and negative-sequence currents during asymmetrical low-voltage ride through (LVRT) conditions. This GC provision prioritizes the reactive currents and also demands maximizing the active positive-sequence current if the IBR has unused current generation capacity when the required reactive current is generated.

ISGT NA 23 Tutorial: Understanding the impacts of customer choices on the Distribution Grid
ISGT NA 23 Tutorial: Understanding the impacts of customer choices on the Distribution Grid 600 400 ieeeeduweek

In the future customers will have more choices than ever before for what they use and how they use it. Appliances and equipment in the home, process equipment in factories, whether employees work from home, what kind of “fuel” their vehicles use, and how they heat and cool their buildings. At the extreme the electric load on a distribution circuit may triple or more, careful planning, tariffs, and demand response could flatten the load and reduce the costs of new infrastructure.

ISGT NA 23 Tutorial: Grid-edge Optimization in Active Power Distribution Systems
ISGT NA 23 Tutorial: Grid-edge Optimization in Active Power Distribution Systems 600 400 ieeeeduweek

The proliferation of controllable grid-edge resources and the deployment of advanced sensing and control technologies in electric power distribution systems calls for coordinated management of the grid’s resources. This has led to a growing interest in academia and industry alike on optimization methods for the large-scale unbalanced power distribution systems for improved operational efficiency and resilience.
