Welcome to this EEE distinguished lecturer & research seminar
Due 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, characterization 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.
This presentation will first briefly introduce some of the key characteristics of future net-zero, sustainable power systems and the need for holistic (multi parameter, multi criteria and multi system) approach to solving the identified challenges and then illustrate, as an example, 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. It aims, above all, to stimulate multidisciplinary research in the area of modelling and analysis of power and energy systems by identifying existing and foreseen challenges, and opportunities to contribute to solving them through joint thinking and effort.
