Driven by sustainability aspirations, tremendous progress has been made in the past decade towards synthesis and solution of complex problems in management of energy networks. Targeting theoretical footings for these algorithmic developments, this talk answers fundamental questions on energy-system modeling and analysis using classical constructs from linear algebra and graph theory. The first part of the talk will focus on model reduction to manage complexity in large-scale power networks.

Join us as we host Lost Horse Press publisher Christine Lysnewycz Holbert for readings from the Contemporary Ukrainian Poetry Series.
Founded in 2017, by editor Grace Mahoney and Christine Lynsnewycz Holbert (founder of Spokane’s Get Lit! Literary Arts Festival), the series publishes works by both established and new Ukrainian poets in a dual-language format, bringing their voices to an English-speaking world.
While it is widely recognized that weather impacts electric grid operations, historically weather information has only been implicitly included in common grid analysis packages. This presentation provides an approach for the direct inclusion of weather information in the power flow and the optimal power flow.
This talk will introduce a recently funded effort by the US Department of Energy, Solar Energy Technology Office, under Renewables Advancing Community Energy Resilience (RACER) program. The project aims at improving the grid resilience for underserved communities primarily affected by high-speed wind hazards using metrics-driven distribution system planning and DG-assisted automated restoration. We will target a low-income focus area in the City of Rockford within ComEd’s service territory for the deployment and field demonstration of the proposed innovations.
