Even though the costs and complexities of the available solu tions vary widely\, the basic underlying theory of power flow control is s till the same as it has always been. The question is which solution one sh ould employ. The answer depends on knowing what the true need is. The powe r industry’s pressing need for the most economical ways to transfer bulk power along a desired path may be met by building new transmission lines\ , which is a long and costly process. Alternately\, it may be quicker and cheaper to utilize the existing transmission lines more efficiently. The k ey is to identify the underutilized transmission lines and harness their d ormant capacities to increase the power flows to the lines’ thermal limi ts using the most cost-effective and time-tested solutions.\n\nThe present ation is designed to provide the basic principles of power flow control th eory\, an overview of the most commonly used power flow controllers\, and future trends. The audience will hear from an expert who has actually desi gned and commissioned a number of power electronics-based FACTS controller s since their inception in the 1990s.\n\nThe two reference books are as fo llows:.\n\n- Introduction to FACTS Controllers: Theory\, Modeling\, and Ap plications (ISBN: 978-0-470-47875-2)\, IEEE Press and John Wiley & Sons\, Inc. 2009\n- Power Flow Control Solutions for a Modern Grid using SMART Po wer Flow Controllers (ISBN: 978-1-119-82435-0)\, IEEE Press and John Wiley & Sons\, Inc.\, 2022.\n\nSpeaker(s): Sen\, \n\nBldg: C122 Exhibition Spac e\, 25 Wally’s Walk\, Macquarie University\, Macquarie University\, New South Wales\, Australia\, 2109\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m /413228 LOCATION:Bldg: C122 Exhibition Space\, 25 Wally’s Walk\, Macquarie Univer sity\, Macquarie University\, New South Wales\, Australia\, 2109\, Virtual : https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/413228 ORGANIZER:sara.deilami@mq.edu.au SEQUENCE:54 SUMMARY:SMART Power Flow Controllers – A Necessity for Future Power Grid URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/413228 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12.0p t\; font-family: 'Times New Roman'\,serif\; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Time s New Roman'\; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\; mso-fareast-language: EN-US\; ms o-bidi-language: AR-SA\;">Power flow control techniques have been practice d\, from using inductors\, capacitors\, transformers\, and load tap change rs in the earlier days of electrical engineering to power electronics-base d solutions in recent years.
