IEEE 1547: Connecting Renewables: Grid Interconnection Standards
This session explores the technical specifications, performance requirements, and testing procedures that govern the safe and reliable integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) — including solar, wind, and battery storage — into the electric grid.
Participants will learn how IEEE 1547 ensures interoperability, voltage regulation, anti-islanding protection, and system stability as renewable energy systems are connected to utility networks.
The workshop highlights how mastering IEEE 1547 is critical for engineers shaping the future of resilient, decentralized, and sustainable energy infrastructures.
PDH certificates will be provided.
Offered by the IEEE Oklahoma City Section as part of the Standard Electrical and Electronic Engineering (SEEE) Workshop Series.
