DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Renewable energy systems are gaining increasing impor
 tance throughout the world. Proliferation of renewable energy sources in p
 ower systems has led to new opportunities and challenges in control\, stab
 ility\, protection\, power quality and operation of power systems. Power e
 lectronics is an enabling technology for effective integration of renewabl
 es into the electrical grid.\n\nThe aim of this talk is to provide an over
 view of a range of important power electronic applications in microgrids a
 nd smart grids with a high share of renewables. Participants will mainly g
 ain insight into the control of power electronic converters in such applic
 ations.\n\nThe main topics are as follows:\n\n-Distributed generation and 
 microgrids\n\n-Photovoltaic systems\n\n-Wind energy systems\n\n-Grid codes
  for renewable energy systems\n\nSpeaker(s): Prof. Mehdi Savaghebi\n\nVirt
