With National Science Foundation support, New Mexico State University will establish the interdisciplinary Center of Research Excellence in Design of Intelligent Technologies for Smartgrids (iCREDITS). The vision of iCREDITS is to obtain sustainable generation capacity by shifting the paradigm from power delivery to energy delivery, using smartgrid concepts. In an energy delivery system, energy is viewed as a commodity, which can be produced, stored, and exchanged. This paradigm will lead to better economic sustainability due to more efficient generation, transmission and usage. This vision accommodates the creation of small microgrids, larger customer-driven microgrids in a distribution feeder and, ultimately, the smartgrid,which includes the generation, transmission, and distribution of the entire power system. The research focus of iCREDITS is to develop the fundamental science and engineering necessary for the energy delivery paradigm. The realization of the smartgrid vision requires addressing a second fundamental problem: the dramatic shortage of smartgrids workforce, exacerbated by the lack of diversity. Intellectual Merit:The proposed research will articulate four research strands, addressing the core components of a modern smartgrid architecture; iCREDITS will strive to combine the innovations within the research strands to advance the broad science and engineering of smartgrids. The challenge addressed by iCREDITS is to investigate the fundamental science in power systems, communication systems, disturbance modeling, and agent-based coordination mechanisms and their interactions to enable the energy-delivery paradigm. The iCREDITS educational initiatives effort will provide comprehensive pathways, starting in the K-12 system and continuing to the doctoral level. The center's educational models are interdisciplinary and designed to serve a student population that is diverse in academic and cultural backgrounds.Broader Impacts:The research agenda is transformative and focused on making deep contributions to the general field of smartgrids - a field that has profound impact on the U.S. economy and the sustainability of the nation's energy infrastructure. Project activities are designed withstrong components of outreach and education, to enhance the participation of women and other underrepresented groups in smartgrids. iCREDITS will address the issues of underrepresentation by expanding the research and training pipeline and introducing specialized mentoring and retention mechanisms. iCREDITS will infuse smartgrids expertise in a range of academic programs, enhancing the competency of New Mexico State University.

在国家科学基金会的支持下，新墨西哥州州立大学将建立跨学科的智能电网智能技术设计卓越研究中心（iCREDITS）。 iCREDITS的愿景是通过使用智能电网概念将模式从电力输送转变为能源输送，以获得可持续的发电能力。在能源输送系统中，能源被视为一种商品，可以生产、储存和交换。这种模式将导致更好的经济可持续性，因为更有效的发电，输电和使用。这一愿景可适应小型微电网的创建，配电馈线中更大的客户驱动型微电网，以及最终的智能电网，其中包括整个电力系统的发电，输电和配电。iCREDITS的研究重点是开发能源输送模式所需的基础科学和工程。智能电网愿景的实现需要解决第二个基本问题：智能电网劳动力严重短缺，缺乏多样性加剧了这一问题。 智力优势：拟议的研究将阐明四个研究领域，解决现代智能电网架构的核心组成部分; iCREDITS将努力联合收割机的研究领域内的创新，以推进智能电网的广泛科学和工程。iCREDITS所面临的挑战是研究电力系统，通信系统，干扰建模和基于代理的协调机制及其相互作用的基础科学，以实现能量输送模式。iCREDITS教育计划的努力将提供全面的途径，从K-12系统开始，一直持续到博士水平。 该中心的教育模式是跨学科的，旨在为具有不同学术和文化背景的学生群体提供服务。更广泛的影响：研究议程是变革性的，并专注于为智能电网的一般领域做出深刻的贡献-这一领域对美国经济和国家能源基础设施的可持续性有着深远的影响。项目活动的设计有很强的外联和教育组成部分，以提高妇女和其他代表性不足的群体对智能电网的参与。iCREDITS将通过扩大研究和培训渠道以及引入专门的指导和保留机制来解决代表性不足的问题。iCREDITS将在一系列学术课程中注入智能电网专业知识，提高新墨西哥州州立大学的能力。
