DESCRIPTION:The traditional AC grid is undergoing a transition from a few l
 arge centralized synchronous generators to hundreds or thousands of local\
 , renewable\, inverter-based generation (IBRs)\, primarily wind and solar.
  The two modes of generation are based on different technologies\, and the
 ir integration into a single hybrid system presents a number of technical 
 challenges\, while also opening up opportunities for the development of ge
 ographical equality\, environmental preservation\, and increased resilienc
 e. A significant amount of expertise and high levels of reliability have b
 een developed over the past 139 years of the AC power industry. With the e
 mergence of renewables\, many of standard ideas for designing and operatin
 g electric power grids will need to change. In this talk\, we will discuss
  the need for new tools of analysis\, extensive data collection\, and the 
 role of AI in maintaining optimum operation of AC systems with significant
  DC penetration. We will also mention some of the tools available for impr
 oving the system's resilience while preserving the environment and the wel
 l-being of the population during system failure and natural disasters.\n\n
