SUMMARY:Seminar on Approaches to Modelling and Analysis of Sustainable Power Networks
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nDue to the evident climate change and environmental pressures the future power/energy systems will have to operate\, sooner rather than later\, in a net-zero environment. This will manifest in a mix of wide range of electricity generation\, storage and demand technologies (increasingly power electronics interfaced); blurred boundaries between transmission and distribution system; significantly higher reliance on the use of legacy and measurement data including global signals for system identification\, characterisation\, and control and Information and Communication Technology embedded within the power system network and its components. The key characteristics of such a complex system\, would certainly be proliferation of power electronic devices in different shapes and forms and for different purposes\, increased uncertainties in system operation and parameters and much larger reliance on the use of measurement and other data collected. \nThis presentation will first briefly introduce some of the key characteristics of net-zero power systems characterised by high proliferation of power electronics (PE) based transmission and control devices/technologies and power electronics connected low carbon technologies (generation\, demand and storage). It will then discuss the control and operation advantages that introduction of these technologies offers\, reflect on resulting challenges that their introduction in the power system poses and elaborate on the need for holistic (multi parameter\, multi criteria and multi system) approach to solving the identified challenges. \nThis will be followed by illustrative examples of both\, advantages and disadvantages resulting from proliferation of power electronics based technologies on power system’s steady state and dynamic performance and examples of a holistic approach to multicriteria multi system analysis of net zero power systems focusing on applications of nondeterministic approaches\, use of data analytics and machine learning. \nThe presentation will conclude with recommendations for overcoming the identified challenges and harnessing the full potential of power electronics based or interfaced technologies for transition to net-zero power systems in foreseeable future. \nSpeaker\nProf. Jovica V MILANOVIĆ\nFormer Head of Department (Dean)\,\nElectrical and Electronic Engineering\,\nThe University of Manchester \nSpeaker’s Biography\nProf. Jovica V MILANOVIĆ received Dipl.Ing. and M.Sc. degrees from the University of Belgrade\, Yugoslavia\, Ph.D. degree from the University of Newcastle\, Australia\, and D.Sc. degree from The University of Manchester\, UK.
