COURSE OVERVIEW

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of System Studies. It covers the types of system studies and its applications in water and electricity sectors; the components of a power system, electrical load and demand analysis; the methods of solving load flow and types of system stability; the factors affecting stability in power systems, stability studies and methods of analysis and power system control devices for enhancing stability; the fault analysis, load flow analysis, fault current calculations and protection coordination; the fault analysis in transformers and generators and the impact of faults on electrical machines; the protection schemes for transformers and generators; and the equipment stress during faults and mitigation techniques. 

 

Further, the course will also discuss the methods for transient stability analysis, stability enhancement techniques and dynamic simulation of power systems; the automatic generation control (AGC), voltage control and reactive power management and interconnection of power systems; and the power system optimization techniques, system protection against dynamic events and forecasting and balancing renewable generation. 

 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the smart grids and advanced metering infrastructure; the demand response management, power quality and harmonics analysis as well as grid modernization and control strategies; the energy storage systems (ESS), resilience analysis of power systems, climate change and its impact on power systems; the long-term power system planning and development, load forecasting and generation planning; the future trends in power system technologies, innovations in renewable energy integration, smart grid advancements and AI in power system management; the cybersecurity risks in power systems, threat analysis and mitigation in system studies; and the importance of securing control systems and data.
