The Power System Planning and Operations (PSPO) aims to help members facilitate the evolution of the power system by initiating research, exchange of technical information and best practices into topics associated with the power system's changing nature and the incorporation of new technologies.
The power system is currently in a state of flux from one that delivered energy from large centralized power plants to electricity consumers, to one that interconnects many smaller distributed resources with those of the legacy power system to meet customers’ energy needs.
Focus Areas.:
Advances in Power System Modeling and Analysis
Use of New Technologies and Tools in the Power System
Maximizing Transmission Capabilities
Integrating Renewable Generation Sources and Storage Technologies
