Program

The many faces of battery storage: from household energy management to power system planning and operations - Dr Evan Franklin

This presentation will explore the multi-faceted role that battery storage will play in a high-penetration renewable energy future.

Integrating high penetrations of wind and solar PV into the power system - Bin Lu

Bin will discuss a recent study on simulations of high penetration of wind and solar PV electricity in the South West Interconnected System.

Distributed Solar Forecasting and Simulations for Distribution Networks - Dr Nick Engerer

An upcoming project will develop an operational product that provides distribution network service providers with real-time distributed PV simulations mapped to their electricity networks by leveraging a unique consortium of partners.
