Short-Term Planning and Analysis using Time-Series Power Flow
Course Description:
In today's rapidly evolving energy landscape, short-term planning studies
require a more comprehensive and dynamic approach. Traditional methods that
relied on limited static peak and off-peak data are no longer sufficient to
accurately predict worst-case scenarios. Planning engineers must now integrate
time-series data into their analyses to make informed decisions based on
realistic scenarios.
This course introduces the Time-series Power Flow add-on module, a powerful
tool that enables planning engineers to enhance the accuracy of short-term
planning decisions, specifically in outage planning and operations planning.
Through a combination of theoretical concepts and practical hands-on exercises,
participants will learn how to leverage this module to unlock valuable insights
and optimize their planning processes.
Course Highlights:
- Understanding the Limitations of Traditional Short-Term
Planning: Explore the shortcomings of relying solely on static peak and
off-peak data and the need for more dynamic and comprehensive approaches.
- Introduction to Time-Series Data: Gain a solid
understanding of time-series data and its significance in capturing the
dynamic behavior of the grid. Learn how to define detailed load and
generation profiles for any desired time interval, ranging from minutes to
hours or days.
- Automation and Streamlining: Discover how to automate
the creation of multiple cases, enabling the generation and analysis of
hundreds of thousands of power flow solutions efficiently. Streamline the
solving process to expedite decision-making.
- Intelligent Post-Processing Techniques: Learn advanced
post-processing techniques to identify revealing trends and outliers
within time-series data. Pinpoint worst-case scenarios for further
analysis and prioritize critical areas of the grid.
- Real-World Applications and Case Studies: Apply the concepts and techniques learned in real-world scenarios through interactive case studies. Gain hands-on experience in using the Time-series Power Flow add-on module to solve complex planning problems.
