IEEE Dayton Section

After the 1st and 2nd workshops held successfully in Dec. 2019 and Dec. 2020, respectively, we cannot wait to organize this 3rd workshop this Dec. virtually with no registration fees. This half-day workshop focuses on planning, operations, modeling, and analysis of transmission & distribution connected renewables & energy storage, and their impacts on the system. We have 6 renowned speakers from utilities (i.e., AEP, Arizona Public Service), independent system operator (MISO), consultant (Quanta Technology), National Lab (Argonne), and university (OSU). The opening speeches will be given by AEP Senior Vice President, Mr. Bob Bradish and IEEE PES President, Dr. Jessica Bian. At the end of the workshop, a panel/roundtable session will be held for additional questions and discussions. Four PDHs will be provided to attendees who attend the entire workshop and answer the poll questions. This is a great and uncommon opportunity for you to learn & discuss those cutting-edge technologies with experts from various perspectives. Please RSVP before Dec. 9th with a correct email address, where the Webex Event information will be sent. Look forward to seeing you online!Co-sponsored by: IEEE PES Region 2Agenda: 2:00 – 2:10 PM:Opening SpeechMr. Bob Bradish, Senior Vice President, AEP Regulated Infrastructure Planning2:10 – 2:20 PM:Opening SpeechDr. Jessica Bian, IEEE PES President2:20 – 2:50 PM:AEP real time operations overview of renewable/energy storage impact to the gridMr. Dave Ball, Vice President, AEP Energy Delivery Operations2:50 – 3:20 PM:Importance of T&D grid modernization to mitigate and adapt to climate changeDr. Damir Novosel, President, Quanta Technology3:20 – 3:50 PM:A stochastic unit commitment model to integrate renewablesDr. Antonio Conejo, Professor, OSU3:50 – 4:00 PM:Break Time4:00 – 4:30 PM:Generator interconnection at MISODr. Kun Zhu, Sr. Manager, MISO4:30 – 5:00 PM:A high-performance open-source computational software package for production cost analysis with energy storagesDr. Feng Qiu, Section Manager & Principal Scientist, Argonne National Lab5:00 – 5:30 PM:APS experience with DER and renewables integration, and how the utility is leveraging customer relationships and technologies to create grid-interactive resourcesDr. Daniel Haughton, Director, APS Customer to Grid Solutions5:30 – 6:00 PM:Panel/Roundtable Discussion SessionDr. Xuan Wu, Principal Engineer, AEPVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/288543
