Infrastructure development and research for a Renewable Grid Power Plant
With the current drive towards achieving a more sustainable power generation from renewable energy resources, the development of its infrastructure and addressing the possible impacts on the grid’s inertia becomes a huge challenge. PV systems (being the fastest growing of all renewable energy deployments globally) have been installed over the years as DERs. But with necessary controls and the use of ESS, inverter-based renewable resources (such as PV) can be developed as traditional power plant producing the high-level inertia for frequency and voltage fluctuation mitigation. This as opened a new set of research challenges that need to be addressed.
In this presentation, I will address some of the challenges that revolve around developing a renewable power plant infrastructure with state-of-the-art controls and solutions within highly a developed city like Miami. Over the years, our collaboration with FPL/NextEra Energy (with the largest deployments of renewable energy resources in the world) have allowed us to validate our unique solutions which include VI-controls, PV forecasting, WPTs, amongst others using our on-campus PV power plant and other PV plants located in Florida.
The seminar platform is WebEx, and only registered will be able to join the seminar. On November 9th WebEx link will be provided for registered participants.
