Special Session 7
Optimal Planning, Situation Awareness, and Coordinated Operation of Modern Power Systems
Motivated by the need to realize energy transition and build low carbon energy systems, renewable energy sources, such as wind and PV power generation, providing desirable green energy, have developed rapidly in recent years. Henceforth, expediting the substitution of conventional fossil fuel-based power generation by renewable energy sources and fostering the development of modern power systems characterized by high penetration of renewable energy sources stand as a principal trajectory in the advancement of power systems in China. However, the high penetration of renewable energy sources will lead to significant changes in the transmission and distribution patterns and stabilization characteristics of the power system, which pose significant challenges for the planning, operation and control of modern power systems. Therefore, it is urgent to have real-time operational insights to ensure secure and economic operation of modern power systems. It is also necessary to explore coordinated planning and operation strategies for modern power systems to fully realize the adjustable potential of flexible resources and further improve system resilience. Given this background, this session intends to shed light on the significance, challenges, and strategies associated with optimal planning, operation situation awareness, coordinated operation in modern power systems. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:1. Coordinated planning and resilience enhancement of modern power systems
Risk and resilience evaluation
Coordinated planning techniques for multi-type resources
Resilience enhancement strategies
2. Operation situation awareness of modern power systems
Real-time situation awareness methods
Data-driven load and renewable energy output forecast
Operational risk forecast methods
3. Coordinated operation and energy management of modern power systems
Optimal operation and control of flexible resources
Decentralized control of distributed resources
Coordinated interaction control among micro-grids
