NSERC/Hydro Quebec Industrial Research Chair in Interactive Information Infrastructure for the Power Grid

NSERC/魁北克水电公司的电网互动信息基础设施工业研究教席旨在为更互联、更安全和更具互操作性的电网开发使能技术解决方案。在最初成功的5年任期之后，新的研究计划已经与电力行业当前的优先事项保持一致。与魁北克水电公司协调，拟议的研究计划将探索、设计和实施变电站内的新通信模式、用于网络传感器的可靠部署和快速恢复的新战略，以及强大的网络攻击能力的新数据收集和验证技术。拟议研究的结果将包括建议、算法和试验台，使魁北克水电和其他公用事业公司能够更好地管理下一代电网，并更好地管理联网性质固有的网络安全风险。该计划将培训这些领域的20多名专家，他们将在培训结束后转到加拿大行业；它还将在几个领域带来理论和实践上的进步，包括噪声建模、合作通信、传感器网络和数据分析。

The NSERC/Hydro-Québec Industrial Research Chair on Interactive Information Infrastructure for the Power Grid aims to develop enabling technology solutions for a more connected, more secure and more interoperable power grid. After a successful initial 5-year term, the new research program has been aligned with current priorities of the power industry. In coordination with Hydro-Québec, the proposed research program will explore, design, and implement new communication paradigms within power substations, new strategies for robust deployment and fast recovery from failures in networked sensors, and new data gathering and validation techniques that are robust to cyberattacks. The results of the proposed research will consist of recommendations, algorithms and testbeds that will allow Hydro-Québec and other utilities to better manage the next generation power grid, and better manage the cybersecurity risks inherent to its connected nature. Theprogram will train upwards of 20 specialists in these areas, who will be transferred to the Canadian industry at the end of their training; it will also lead to theoretical and practical advances in several areas, including noise modeling, cooperative communications, sensor networks, and data analytics.
