What’s happening

The operation of modern power grids is increasingly challenged by the massive integration of volatile renewable energy as well as high-impact events such as natural disasters and cyber-attacks. The conventional rule-based operational paradigm is no longer a viable solution, and real-time situational awareness must be obtained from massive and heterogeneous sensor data streams to support intelligent decision-making and control. This talk will address two main pillars of the situational awareness required by a resilient and renewable power grid of the future.
