The full agenda is still in development and any sugges tions for topics will be welcome to ensure this Workshop is of maximum ben efit to you and to Alaska. More announcements will be made as the developm ent of the Workshop unfolds. This information is applicable to anyone who is considering Alternate Energy Applications for a Utility\, an Industrial facility\, a community power system or remote locations.\n\nIEEE 1547 has changed a lot since it was originally published in 2003. The high penetra tion of Solar energy DER in California and Hawaii demanded change in how i nterconnects need to interact with the EPS's so IEEE 1547 was revised to a ccommodate the new requirements. The IEEE 1547 changes force changes to th e UL 1741 Standard for grid tie inverters which will impact all those invo lved with interconnect of DER to EPS.\n\nI believe that now is a very good time to bring a lot of the technical issues out which can impact the Util ities planning\, and the IPP (Independent Power Producers) and any others who need to know what the technical requirements and constraints are which affect how each proposed DER installation should be addressed. We are dea ling with systems\, both electrical power systems and communications syste ms.\n\nPotential topics\n\n- Islanding-Intentional and Unintentional\n- Vo ltage Ride through\n- Voltage and power control (active and reactive)\n- D ER (Inverter) performance requirements\n- Things engineers and managers fo r the EPS need to know.\n- Things IPP operators need to know.\n- Use of st ored energy\n- Open discussion or panel discussion on selected topics.\n\n Co-sponsored by: CH06268 - Alaska Section Chapter\, PE31\n\nSpeaker(s): Ma rk Siira\, Charlie Vartanian\n\nAgenda: \n8:00 am to 8:30 am Check in\, Ha nd out materials 8:30 am to 11:30 am Training (breaks will be scheduled du ring the Workshop 11:30 am to 12:15 pm Lunch 12:15 pm to 5:00 pm Training (with breaks scheduled\n\nBldg: Alaska Communications Business Center\, 60 0 East 36th Avenue\, Suite 100\, Anchorage\, Alaska\, United States\, 9950 3 LOCATION:Bldg: Alaska Communications Business Center\, 600 East 36th Avenue \, Suite 100\, Anchorage\, Alaska\, United States\, 99503 ORGANIZER:seitzak@ieee.org SEQUENCE:14 SUMMARY:IEEE 1547-2018 ALASKA WORKSHOP URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/202370 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>We have an opportunity to have a Workshop in Anchorage at the beginning of September because engineers who have been engaged in the business of Renewable Energy and in the development of the applicable standards will be in Alaska.&nbsp\; The full agenda is still i n development and any suggestions for topics&nbsp\;will be welcome&nbsp\;t o ensure this Workshop is of maximum benefit to you and to Alaska.&nbsp\; More announcements will be made as the development of the Workshop unfolds .&nbsp\; This information is applicable to anyone who is considering Alter nate Energy Applications for a Utility\, an Industrial facility\, a commun ity power system or&nbsp\;remote locations.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>IEEE 1547 has c hanged a lot since it was originally published in 2003.&nbsp\; The high pe netration of Solar energy DER in California and Hawaii demanded change in how interconnects need to interact with the EPS's so IEEE 1547 was revised to accommodate the new requirements.&nbsp\; The IEEE 1547 changes force c hanges to the UL 1741 Standard for grid tie inverters which will impact al l those involved with interconnect of DER to EPS.</p>\n<p>I believe that n ow is a very good time to bring a lot of the technical issues out which ca n impact the Utilities planning\, and the IPP (Independent Power Producers ) and any others who need to know what the technical requirements and cons traints are which affect how each proposed DER installation should be addr essed.&nbsp\; We are dealing with systems\, both electrical power systems and communications systems.</p>\n<p>&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Potential topics</p>\n <ul>\n<li>Islanding-Intentional and Unintentional</li>\n<li>Voltage Ride t hrough</li>\n<li>Voltage and power control (active and reactive)</li>\n<li >DER (Inverter) performance requirements</li>\n<li>Things engineers and ma nagers for the&nbsp\; EPS need to know.</li>\n<li>Things IPP operators nee d to know.</li>\n<li>Use of stored energy</li>\n<li>Open discussion or pan el discussion on selected topics.</li>\n</ul><br /><br />Agenda: <br /><p> 8:00 am to 8:30 am Check in\, Hand out materials 8:30 am to 11:30 am Train ing (breaks will be scheduled during the&nbsp\;Workshop 11:30 am to 12:15 pm Lunch 12:15 pm to 5:00 pm Training (with breaks scheduled</p>\n<p>&nbsp \;</p> END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
