4th Workshop on Management and Control of Energy Supply-demand Networks with Renewables

Renewable Energy

All are welcome to attend the 4th Workshop on Management and Control of Energy Supply-demand Networks with Renewables. The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers to develop an understanding of the challenges, and some possible solutions, for maintaining a reliable power grid as the percentage of renewables in the energy mix increases. The current operational paradigm for the power grid was developed for power plants whose output could be controlled reliably. Renewable sources such as wind and solar are inherently intermittent and unpredictable. Further, integration of renewable energy sources at the distribution level creates new sets of issues that were traditionally not present in the grid. The workshop will provide an introduction to these various issues and a snapshot into the current research being done in this arena.
