DESCRIPTION:The usage of electricity is increasing rapidly due to the fast 
 adoption of mega-sized data centers\, electric vehicles\, etc. To combat t
 he greenhouse effect\, the generation of renewable energy is also skyrocke
 ting. However\, the other important piece of the puzzle is to transport el
 ectricity from where it is generated to where it is used in load centers i
 n the most reliable\, efficient and affordable way. The power 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 l
 ong and costly process. Alternatively\, it may be quicker and cheaper to u
 tilize the existing transmission lines more efficiently. Power flow contro
 l in a transmission line is an art that is still being perfected.\n\nThe p
 resentation will cover basic principles of power flow control theory\, an 
 overview of the most commonly used power flow controllers\, and their meri
 ts and demerits\, and future trends.\n\nThe audience will hear from an exp
 ert who actually designed and commissioned a number of power electronics-b
 ased FACTS controllers since their inceptions in the 1990s.\n\nSpeaker(s):
