Description

Designing a Sustainable and Reliable Future: Simulating Next Generation Energy Systems Power systems worldwide are changing rapidly in the face of the global challenge of decarbonization and the subsequent addition of more distributed and variable renewable energy sources. Since the power system is enormous in scale, has very long investment horizons, and stringent reliability requirements, changes to the system need to be thoroughly validated through computational simulations before being implemented in practice. This talk focuses on the challenges of renewables integration and the simulation methods and data being developed to help design future low-cost highly reliable interconnected energy systems. Biography: Bri-Mathias Hodge is an Associate Professor with the Department of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering and a Fellow of the Renewable and Sustainable Energy Institute, University of Colorado Boulder. He is also Chief Scientist with the Power Systems Engineering Center at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). This seminar is held in conjunction with Cornell Energy Systems Club Energy Days 2021. For more infromation on Energy Days please visit: https://energy.cornell.edu/energy-systems-club/energy-day
