DESCRIPTION:Due to the evident climate change and environmental pressures t
 he future power/energy systems will have to operate\, sooner rather than l
 ater\, in a net-zero environment\, i.e.\, any carbon emissions created wil
 l have to be balanced (cancelled out) by taking the same amount of carbon 
 out of the atmosphere\, so that the amount of carbon emissions added to th
 e atmosphere should not be more than the amount taken away. This will mani
 fest in: by mix\, at least during the transition period\, of wide range of
  electricity generating technologies including conventional hydro\, reduci
 ng but still present thermal\, possibly increasing nuclear and even higher
  and accelerated connection of power electronic interfaced stochastic and 
 intermittent renewable generation\; blurred boundaries between transmissio
 n and distribution system\; responsive and highly flexible\, typically pow
 er electronics interfaced\, demand and storage technologies with significa
 nt temporal and spatial uncertainty\; proliferation of power electronics (
 HVDC\, FACTS devices and new types of load devices)\; significantly higher
  reliance on the use of legacy and measurement data including global (Wide
  Area Monitoring) signals for system identification\, characterization and
  control and Information and Communication Technology embedded within the 
 power system network and its components\; and ever increasing emphasis on 
 considering the “whole system”\, not only comprising different energy 
 vectors\, but also ICT\, traffic\, water and social systems\, to ensure en
 ergy supply security and efficiency. The key characteristics of such a com
 plex system\, if only a few are to be picked\, would certainly be prolifer
 ation of power electronic devices in different shapes and forms and for di
 fferent purposes\, increased uncertainties in system operation and paramet
 ers and much larger reliance on the use of measurement and other data coll
 ected. This will increase controllability and observability of the system 
 but may as a tradeoff result in different/unexpected dynamic behaviour of 
 the system and possibly\, under some circumstances\, deterioration of some
  aspects of its performance. This presentation first briefly introduces so
