Electric power systems are constantly evolving, especially with an increasing transition to renewable energy sources. Several factors are affecting the transition, including technological breakthroughs, climate change, resource security, demographic changes, and accelerated urbanization. The fast pace of change of modern power systems calls for a flexible and open approach to technology development. Hence, in the proposed project, researchers from the University of Alberta and the University of Calgary will collaborate with all six major power utility partners in Alberta to accelerate the development and adoption of safe and reliable energy systems technology. The themes within this project will focus on: 1) building intelligent processes to deal with systems issues using modern methods of artificial intelligence, 2) investigating the application of advanced power electronics converter systems and their impact on grid operation and control, 3) advancing the integration of distributed and renewable energy resources, and 4) examining the safety and security of modern interconnected electricity systems. The potential benefits of this project include the effective and efficient integration of renewable energy into the power grid, reduction in the occurrence of power system failures and cyber attacks, and development of customized solutions to current and emerging problems facing the power industry in Canada. This project will also train HQP in skills that are in high demand in the Canadian power sector, hence supporting the growth of knowledge-based industries in Canada. Additionally, electric power customers will benefit from reduced frequency and severity of system problems and have access to more affordable energy.

电力系统在不断发展，特别是随着越来越多地过渡到可再生能源。有几个因素正在影响这一转变，包括技术突破、气候变化、资源安全、人口结构变化和城市化加速。现代电力系统的快速变化需要一种灵活和开放的技术开发方法。因此，在拟议的项目中，来自阿尔伯塔大学和卡尔加里大学的研究人员将与阿尔伯塔的所有六个主要电力公司合作伙伴合作，以加速开发和采用安全可靠的能源系统技术。 该项目的主题将集中在：1）使用现代人工智能方法构建智能流程以处理系统问题，2）研究先进电力电子转换器系统的应用及其对电网运行和控制的影响，3）推进分布式和可再生能源的整合，以及4）检查现代互联电力系统的安全性。 该项目的潜在好处包括有效和高效地将可再生能源整合到电网中，减少电力系统故障和网络攻击的发生，并为加拿大电力行业面临的当前和新出现的问题开发定制解决方案。该项目还将培训HQP掌握加拿大电力部门的高需求技能，从而支持加拿大知识型产业的发展。 此外，电力客户将受益于系统问题频率和严重程度的降低，并获得更实惠的能源。
