Increasing adoption of renewable power generation, coupled with the addition of new types of electrical-energy consumption, is drastically changing the grid infrastructure . Whether centralized or distributed, reliance on variable-generation renewable sources and widespread electrification of different sectors (such as transport) is challenging traditional grid management paradigms. Power flow is increasingly bidirectional, with a greater volume of inputs from various diverse locations.
It is imperative for operators to be increasingly aware of the real-time situation (e.g., grid layout, interpretation of all data collected, prepared for potential scenarios) to maintain reliability, availability, security and economical access as the grid-interconnected power system evolves.
Join our expert panel as they discuss regional and global observations from system operators. They’ll elaborate on existing and emerging real-time control system technologies that can unblock grid challenges and unlock the value of a smarter, greener grid.
