DESCRIPTION:Title: A Decade of Discovery: My Journey with IBR Integration\n
 \nOverview:\n\nOver the past decade\, the electric power industry has seen
  a dramatic rise in the interconnection of inverter-based resources (IBRs)
  across both transmission and distribution systems. This presentation offe
 rs a personal reflection on my professional journey through this evolving 
 landscape—from confronting early technical challenges to contributing to
  collaborative industry efforts that shaped emerging standards. Drawing on
  field experience\, committee leadership\, and cross-sector initiatives\, 
 I’ll share key lessons learned in integrating IBRs with a focus on maint
 aining and enhancing grid reliability.\n\nSpeaker(s): Manish Patel\n\nAgen
