    CYBER-PHYSICAL ENERGY SYSTEMS AND ENERGY REVOLUTION
    Professor GUAN Xiaohong
    Academician of Chinese Academy of Science, Professor, Faculty of Electronic and Information Engineering, Xi’an Jiaotong University

    Carbon emission from power and energy systems poses a huge challenge on the efforts to contain the global climate change. Utilization of new renewable energy such as wind and solar is inevitable. Cyber-physical energy system (CPES) provides a desirable infrastructure for efficient energy production and consumption with uncertain energy resources.

    With the traditional storage technology, it is very important to solve the problem of security constrained planning and scheduling of power systems with new renewable energy sources. The analytical conditions are discussed for fast identifying the security bottleneck in a complex power grid when new renewable energy sources coordinate with storable energy sources such as hydro and pumped storage.

    Production, storage and transportation, and utilization of hydrogen as a main secondary energy source are introduced. It is shown that with the nontraditional energy storage technology the hydrogen driven zero-carbon intelligent energy system provides an ideal infrastructure for energy supply and consumption without carbon emission and pollution, and would lead to the energy revolution towards resolving the global warming issue.

    ELECTROMAGNETIC RESILIENCE ENHANCEMENT OF CRITICAL NATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE
    Professor XIE Yanzhao
    Professor, School of Electrical Engineering, Xi’an Jiaotong University

    This talk will introduce the recent progress of resilience enhancement measures for critical infrastructure against the extreme electromagnetic events, e.g. geomagnetic disturbance (GMD) and intentional electromagnetic interference (IEMI), etc. Firstly, this talk will present a triangular pyramid model which aims for evaluation of electromagnetic security of critical infrastructure and discuss the significance of electromagnetic resilience. Then, the characteristics of typical extreme electromagnetic environments, such as GMD and IEMI, will be analyzed. The electromagnetic effect mechanism and susceptibility evaluation theory for critical infrastructure will be introduced. As a typical example, the impact of GMD on the power grid is analyzed. The 100-year and 10,000-year extreme GMD scenarios have been established, and the impact on critical equipment such as transformer are evaluated, including the hot-spot heating, reactive power loss and harmonics, etc. Finally, taking into account the priority of critical infrastructure, a comprehensive electromagnetic resilience enhancement strategy can be developed by integrating the prevention, protection and recovery techniques.

    SUSTAINING RENEWABLE ENERGY DEVELOPMENT BY DIGITAL TWIN AND AI
    Professor XU Zhao
    Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

    Renewable energy provides a sustainable and carbon free solution for energy supply. However, renewable energy systems such as solar PV system and wind turbine often suffer from random faults and failures due to external disturbances from harsh operation environments. This talk will introduce latest progress of Digital Twin and Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications to operation, planning and control of renewable energy systems to reinforce high operation performance. Different concepts. algorithms and methods will be introduced, and their applications for renewable prognosis, fault diagnosis and predictive maintenance and etc. will also discussed.

    INTELLIGENT ENABLING TECHNIQUES FOR A SUSTAINABLE AND SECURE POWER SYSTEM
    Dr BU Siqi
    Associate Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

    Sustainability and security are sometimes two conflicting factors in modern power system operation, especially when considering the impact of renewable energy. This talk will firstly introduce the growing risks in the operation of sustainable power systems featured by the large-scale integration of renewable power generation. Then some conventional techniques to deal with these emerging challenges will be carefully reviewed and compared. On this basis, the talk will move on to some latest developed intelligent assessment techniques and tools to enable the secure planning and operation of sustainable power systems, which have demonstrated superior performance in terms of accuracy and efficiency.
