As the penetratio n of renewable power generation increases\, electricity grids are beginnin g to experience challenges\, which are often caused by intermittent nature of some common renewable generation types\, sudden changes of the output power due to grid disturbances\, low short circuit duty of the inverter ba sed generators\, and impact on the transmission and distribution system pr otection. Due to the increasing amount of Distributed Energy Resources (DE Rs) interconnections with the Electric Power System\, the IEEE 1547 standa rd is going through a major revision to address some of the technical chal lenges associated with high penetration of DERs i.e. grid support function alities\, etc.\n\nThe participants will learn about the benefits and chall enges of the renewable energy resources interconnections as well as major changes to the IEEE 1547 i. e. voltage regulation\, response to abnormal s ystem conditions (including voltage and frequency ride through)\, power qu ality\, islanding\, interoperability\, etc. The participants will also lea rn about the utility concerns/solutions to adopt the revised IEEE 1547 sta ndard.
