With the ongoing investments in the smarter electric grid, several new
algorithms and devices have been developed and being implemented.
Adoptions of microgrid, distribution automation and demand response
are critical smart grid technologies, which lead to active
distribution systems. Smart meters devices, smart switches and
coordinated volt/var control helps in realizing higher
efficiency and reliability of distribution system as well as in
enabling number of new applications. Microgrid helps in increased
penetration of renewable distributed energy sources and high
reliability. This talk will present research activities related to
distribution automation, microgrid control and related specific
applications.
