Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Power Systems Engineering (PSerc)

摘要EEC-9616221托马斯 电力工业必须对国家电力系统进行有管理的重新设计，以便能够适应放松管制以及电力需求和经济条件的快速变化。 去年春天，一项规划拨款被授予研究电力系统工程行业/大学合作研究中心（I/UCRC）的可行性，以解决创建工具和模型所需的研究，以帮助未来高性能电力系统的技术设计。 一个多大学的I/UCRC在电力系统工程，包括康奈尔大学，威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校，伊利诺伊大学香槟分校，和加州大学伯克利分校，和霍华德大学作为一个附属机构，是可行的。 该中心的研究议程将涉及：1）用于分析新电力业务替代模式的模拟工具; 2）竞争性电力的市场机制; 3）用于模拟统一承诺和时间表的竞标的互联网平台; 4）可用传输能力; 5）数据校准;和6）振荡的实时控制。 电力研究所正计划分担部分活动的费用。 该中心与C博士共同承担费用。Singh，项目总监，工程系统/电力系统项目，电气和通信系统部门。

Abstract EEC-9616221 Thomas The power industry must undertake a managed redesign of the Nation's Power System so that it can adopt to deregulation and to rapid changes in the power requirements and economic conditions. A planning grant was awarded last spring to study the feasibility of an Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) for Power Systems Engineering to address the research needed to create the tools and models to aid in the technical design of a future high-performance electric power system. A multi-university I/UCRC in Power Systems Engineering, involving Cornell University, The University of Wisconsin-Madison, The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and The University of California, Berkeley, and Howard University as an affiliate, is viable. The research agenda for the Center will address: 1) Simulation Tools for Analysis of Alternative Paradigms for New Electricity Business; 2) Market Mechanisms for Competitive Electricity; 3) An Internet Platform for Simulating Competitive Bidding for Unist Commitment and Schedule; 4) Available Transfer Capability; 5) Data Calibration; and 6) Real-Time Control of Oscillations. The Electric Power Research Institute is planning to cost share some of the activities. The Center is being cost-shared with Dr. C. Singh, Program Director, Engineering Systems/Power Systems Program, Division of Electrical and Communications Systems.
