How to Network When You Hate Networking: A PDI and Physics & Astronomy Department Collaborative Event
This webinar focuses on the newer and feasible approaches for the management and control of the electric grid with renewables. Reliable and efficient operation of the electric grid with advanced control and management of the electric distribution system with renewable energy resources (RERs) such as distributed RER clustering/unified control, stacked control of energy storage, and optimal reconfiguration and resilient control framework for real-time photovoltaic dispatch, will be the main topic of discussion. Further, operational methods including newer management and control tools are presented with a special emphasis on utility-scale functions. Finally, evolving techniques and pathways of electric grid management that integrate data sets generated from sensors and meters are also discussed with a special emphasis on the overall reliability and resiliency of the electric grid with renewable energy resources.
Doug Call (Senior Vice Provost), Renny Christopher (Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, WSU Vancouver), and Haluk Beyenal (Associate Dean for Research and Graduate Studies, Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture) will be hosting four Town Halls regarding the promotion and tenure process.
