This free webinar is a special joint presentation between Texas A&M University and ElectroTempo, a new member of the Smart Grid Center. We will be giving an overview of our EV simulation and integration work, which requires cross-domain modeling and simulation from both of our teams. Our webinar will focus on our innovative scalable truck …
Description Geomagnetic disturbances (GMDs), caused by solar coronal mass ejections, have the potential to significantly impact the operation of the high voltage electric grid by causing geomagnetically induced currents (GICs). Over the last decade there has been significant research, industry interest, and regulatory concern about the impact of GMDs on the high voltage electric grid. …
Large Language Models (LLMs) as chatbots have drawn remarkable attention thanks to their versatile capability in natural language processing as well as in a wide range of tasks. While there has been great enthusiasm towards adopting such foundational model-based artificial intelligence tools in all sectors possible, the capabilities and limitations of such LLMs in improving …
High voltage electric grids are some of the world’s most complex machines, whose present high levels of reliability have been achieved through careful planning. The purpose of this three-day short course is to provide a comprehensive coverage of the processes used in doing this planning. The course philosophy is to provide a practical, hands-on approach …
The second annual student workshop of the research project “Strategic Holistic Framework for Intrusion Prevention Using Multi-model Data in Power Systems (SHIELD)” (PI: Ismail Muhammad, Associate Professor, Computer Science, Tennessee Tech) funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) was held at the Center for Infrastructure Renewal (CIR) of Texas A&M University System (TEES) on May …
One of the key pillars of the energy transition is the electrification of transportation. While much work has been done in this area, it is mostly single-disciplinary, ignoring the detailed modeling and simulation of other systems and sub-systems. In this webinar, I will present the cutting-edge work at Texas A&M University on full-fidelity interdisciplinary EV …
The Energy & Power Research Day was held in person at the Center for Infrastructure (CIR) on RELLIS campus on April 23, 2024. It included presentations on current projects, demonstrations, and networking with industry. Sponsors of the event were the Smart Grid Center (SGC) of Texas Engineering Experiment Station (TEES) and the Energy and Power …
Electricity is the lifeblood of our modern society, and for most this electricity is supplied by large-scale, interconnected electric grids. Engineered as the ultimate in plug-and-play convenience, the wall outlet is actually the gateway to the world’s largest and most complex machine. The goal of this course is to provide a comprehensive introduction for those …
The 24th meeting of the Advisory Board of the TEES Smart Grid Center was hosted in person at Center for Infrastructure Renewal on the RELLIS campus in Bryan, Texas, on March 18, 2024. Prior to the business meeting, demonstrations took place at the SGC Control Room Lab and the newly opened Grid Interactions Research Facility …
