Seminar. "Sustainable
Intelligent Networks (Macro
/ Micro): Challenges
and Opportunities". Arequipa, Peru. The
power systems and energy systems are currently undergoing major
changes and facing their biggest challenges, these evolves changes
in structure and competing on the way them must satisfy the demand.
They are evolving from the present centralized power systems to the
densely distributed systems of tomorrow. In future, electricity
markets and networks must provide all consumers a highly reliable,
flexible , accessible and cost, maximizing the use of both large
centralized generators and smaller distributed energy sources across
the network. End users will be significantly interactive and
involved on markets, the electricity will be generated by sources
combining the centralized traditional sources and dispersed energy
sources with very different technologies, the generation-mix and
network systems will be more inter-operable in order to improve
safety and profitability. Therefore, electric utilities around the
world are evolving, adopting a vision "smarter " that requires
profound changes. This vision seeks complete modernization and
automation of power grids with strong foundation in information
technology and communication ( ICT) . Furthermore , this view also
includes the main elements of smart metering , power electronics and
information management to renewable and distributed energy resources
, home energy management (Smart appliances ) and electric vehicles (
EV ). This seminar is designed to introduce the main concepts and
developments related to future electricity networks and the
challenges and opportunities from different perspectives: supply
business / consumer, Research & Development & Innovation (IDI).
Intelligent, macro, micro, distributed generation, sustainable, and
smarter grids will be discussed and contextualized. The impact of
new technologies and topologies operating procedures will be

Frequency Control and Inertial Response
Schemes for the Future Power Networks.
Future power networks face several challenges: (i)
the high penetration level of renewable energy
from highly variable generators connected over
power converters, (ii) several technologies for
energy storage with very different time
constants -some of them using power converters
as an interface to the grid, (iii) A
pan-European transmission network facilitating
the integration of large-scale renewable energy
sources and the balancing and transportation of
electricity based on underwater multi-terminal
high voltage direct current transmission. All of
them have an element in common, high power
converters that decouple the new energy sources
from the pre-existent ac power systems. During a
system frequency disturbance the system
frequency will change at a rate initially
determined by the total system inertia. The
inertial response of the system might be
negatively affected with devastating
consequences for system security and
reliability. The aim of this tutorial is to
introduce the frequency control and inertia
response schemes for the future power networks.

Integration of Wind Power into Power System: Key
Issues. Wind power is undergoing the
fastest rate of growth of any form of
electricity generation in the world. Ambitious
goals for wind power development have been set
by many countries. The resource potential is
large; with many countries having wind regimes
that could serve as a significant energy source.
Electrical power systems must supply energy in
close balance to demand. The average load varies
in predictable daily and seasonal patterns, but
there is an unpredictable component due to
random load variations and unforeseen events. On
the other hand, Wind energy conversion systems (WECS)
are characterised by large variations in
production. Wind resources vary on every time
scale: seconds, minutes, hours, days, months and
years. Both electricity supply and demand are
variable. The issue, therefore, is not one of
variability or intermittency per se, but how to
predict, manage and ameliorate variability and
what tools can be utilised to improve
efficiency. The major issues of wind power
integration are related to changed approaches in
operation of the power system, connection
requirements for wind power plants to maintain a
stable and reliable supply, extension and
modification of the grid infrastructure, and
influence of wind power on system adequacy and
the security of supply. The objective of this
workshop is to present key issues related to the
integration of wind power into power systems.

Massive Integration of Offshore Wind Power using
High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) Systems.
Use of high voltages (HV) is the key to
efficient transmission and distribution of
electrical power. The objective of this seminar
is to provide an overview about the basic
concepts used on High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC)
system and its use to integrate offshore wind
power into the classical power systems. Special
emphasis would be given on linking the
theoretical concepts with the practical
applications. HVDC is often a preferred
technology for overhead power transmission over
long distances and under-ground cables for
relatively shorter distances. A bulk of the new
offshore transmission infrastructure in the UK
and worldwide is envisaged to be employing HVDC.
In this context, the first part of the seminar
on ‘Integration of Offshore Wind Power using
HVDC Systems’ would give an introduction to the
HVDC technology; its advantages (and
disadvantage) over conventional AC transmission;
operation and control of HVDC and it’s
interaction with the existing AC transmission
network. Emerging technologies through use of
voltage source converters would be covered. The
second half of the seminar on ‘Wind power and
HVDC Transmission Systems’ would outline the
benefits of using DC transmission to integrate
wind power into the classical AC power systems.

Exploring Beyond the Frontiers to Build a
Smarter Grid (EBF2BSG). 19-20th March
2013. Coventry University. International seminar
sponsored by The Royal Society. Looking beyond
2030, the challenges for electricity networks
are likely to increase. There exists general
consensus that the challenges of climate change
and system security, in particular the ability
to accommodate significant volumes of
decentralised and renewable generation, requires
that the network infrastructure must be upgraded
to enable smart operation. The major changes to
the way we supply and use energy; building a
smarter grid lies at the heart of these changes.
The large increases in electricity generation
from intermittent/highly variable renewable
resource, the increase of stressing/narrowly
conditions on transmission system, a massive
decoupling between generation/load caused by dc
system and several other features expected into
the future electricity networks will negatively
affect the system security. The reliable and
sophisticated solutions to the foreseen issues
of the future networks are creating
dynamically-intelligent application/solutions to
be deployed during the incremental process of
building the smarter grid. The future
electricity networks and its potential issues
require looking beyond the existing research
frontiers irrespective of the disciplinary
boundaries. For this reason, the discussion of
the future development on
sophisticated/intelligent applications/solutions
is the key research point to provide the
critical importance to economic and social
welfare into future smarter networks. This
international seminar is designed to explore
beyond the thinkable-frontiers in order to
create the "integrated energy networks" beyond
the expected smarter grids. The "Smart Grid"
concept is moving quite fast towards its
consolidation, its zenith is highly expectable,
and then a maturity stage is clearly obvious.
However, a fuzzy idea regarding the
technical-functional obsolescence must be
thought by visionary researchers. What will
happen after the maturity of Smarter Grid has
been reached? This is the answer that we are
looking for. A very exclusive group of
high-level researchers and experts from UK and
India, coming from the academia (Prof Terzija -
The University of Manchester, Prof Xiao-Ping
Zhang - University of Birmingham, Prof Sri Niwas
Singh, Indian Institute of Technology,
Kanpur,... ) and the electricity sector (several
colleagues from National Grid Plc) are attend to
this seminar. Dr Francisco M. Gonzalez will be

Students got a taste of real power systems.
On Monday 30th January 2012, around 20 students
of Department of Aerospace, Electrical and
Electronic Engineers, Coventry University
travelled by coach to the National Grid House,
Warwick Technology Park, Warwick. When they
arrived, there were strict security arrangements
and they all had pre-made security badges to
wear. After a short introduction and brief, they
watched two fascinating presentations by several
employees at the centre, a vision of National
Grid electricity business and Future Aspects and
Challenges on Energy Market were presented. They
enjoyed a presentation about the main functions
of the gas supply network - to ensure sufficient
supply is available at the right place and the
right time to meet consumer demand. After that
presentation, they enjoyed viewing of the
National Grid's System Control Centre, which
manages the flow of the gas from the beach to
the end consumer. It uses telemetered data from
all the operational sites to monitor the system.
Finally, they enjoyed a technical tour on Hams
Substation, 400/275/132 kV. It was a great
opportunity to gain a first hand understanding
of how such a complex and yet taken-for-granted
system works and the real challenges faced by
electrical engineers In getting electricity from
where it is generated, to your house. This was a
unique opportunity to visit National Grid
facilities and see everything behind the power
system processes. The main organizer, Dr
Francisco Gonzalez-Longatt is very pleased about
this visit, "It is really important for students
to be able to relate the material taught in
their lecture courses to real-life engineering
technology". Next field trip will be announced
very soon. |
