DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Xuebo Liu\, Jin Tan\n\nAuthors: Xuebo Liu\, Xin Fang
 \, Ningchao Gao\, Haoyu Yuan\, Andy Hoke\, Hongyu Wu\, Jin Tan\n\nWebinar 
 Abstract\n\nThis webinar presents a data-driven unit commitment approach t
 hat integrates frequency nadir constraints to enhance frequency stability 
 in islanded and interconnected power systems with high inverter-based gene
 ration. By using linear regression models trained on year-long simulations
 \, the method embeds frequency response requirements directly into operati
 onal planning. Evaluated on a real island system over a full year\, the ap
 proach shows improved reliability and cost-effectiveness compared to tradi
 tional inertia-based methods\, particularly under low-inertia conditions. 
 The session will offer insights for engineers and system planners seeking 
 advanced tools for reliable frequency management in modern power systems.\
 n\nBios:\n\nXuebo Liu (Member\, IEEE) is currently a Transmission System P
 lanning Engineer at Eversource\, where he focuses on distributed energy re
 source (DER) integration and large-scale load integration. He received the
  B.S. degree in computer engineering from Kansas State University\, Manhat
 tan\, KS\, USA\, in 2020\, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer
  engineering from Kansas State University in August 2025. He worked as an 
 intern at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (Aug. 2021 to Feb. 2022
 ). His work supports grid stability and reliability\, as well as short- an
 d long-term transmission planning. His research interests include grid-con
 nected building energy management\, power system operation and planning\, 
 machine learning\, and modeling for renewable energy integration.\n\nDr. T
 an has over 15 years of experience in large-scale renewable integration st
 udy. Her research interests include power system stability and control\, m
 ulti-timescale modeling and simulation for renewable integration\, and ene
 rgy storage for grid applications. She has received several awards\, inc
 luding the NREL Chairperson Award (2024)\, NREL President Award (2018\, 20
 20)\, the NREL Outstanding Mentor Award (2020\, 2021\, 2022\, 2023\,2025)\
