Course Description
New solutions to the protection, control, and monitoring of power systems are being put to work all the time, by scientists, engineers, and technicians in utilities and industry around the world.
The expansion of the existing interconnected electric power transmission systems offers significant advantages with respect to operational security, integration of renewable energy, as well as energy trading. On the other hand, the complexity of operational problems significantly increases and hence large R&D efforts are urgently required in order to make full use of recent technological innovations with respect to new power system components like wide area monitoring, control, and protection equipment.
The effective operation of power systems in the present and the future depends to a large extent on how well the emerging challenges are met today. Power systems continue to be stressed as they are operated in many instances at or near their full capacities. In order to keep power systems operating securely and economically, it is necessary to further improve power and control system protection. Synchronized phasor measurements-time synchronization allows synchronized real-time measurements of multiple remote measurement points on the grid. The advantage of referring phase angle to a global reference time is helpful in capturing the wide area snap shot of the power system. Effective utilization of this technology is very useful in getting the real time behavior of the power system. This course provides the challenges and opportunities the utilities and power industry face in new protection and control schemes and also applying PMUs in improving the protection schemes.
This course will be of interest and use to people working in protection, control, communications, planning, operations, maintenance, regulation, and design.
