Graduate Seminar on Voltage Ride Through (VRT) in Modern Power Systems. Speaker: Mr. Bashar Ibrahim (Siemens) Date: Monday, April 13 Time: 5:30 PM Location: Room 117 (In-Person) This seminar will present the concept of Voltage Ride Through (VRT), a critical requirement in modern power systems to ensure grid stability during voltage disturbances. The lecture will cover real-world applications, grid code requirements (e.g., ERCOT), and the role of reactive power support in maintaining system reliability, especially with the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources. Organized by IEEE Galveston Bay Section (Region 5) Supported by Siemens & IEEE Co-sponsored by: Siemens Speaker(s): Ibrahim, Room: 117, Bldg: New Electrical Building, 100 University dr., Prairie View, Texas, United States, 77446

This technical seminar presents a real-world perspective on career development in power systems engineering, focusing on transmission planning and grid integration studies. The speaker, a Power Systems Consultant at Siemens, will share their academic and professional journey from undergraduate studies to advanced research and industry practice. The talk will cover key technical aspects of modern power systems, including: - Transmission system planning and interconnection studies - Integration of renewable energy sources (solar, wind, and battery storage) - Steady-state and contingency analysis (P0, N-1, N-1-1 conditions) - Identification of system violations such as thermal and voltage limits - Use of industry-standard tools such as PSS®E and TARA for system modeling and analysis In addition, the session will highlight how grid operators (RTOs/ISOs such as ERCOT, MISO, and SPP) coordinate system reliability and how engineers evaluate the impact of new generation on existing infrastructure. The seminar will also discuss practical mitigation strategies, industry standards (NERC compliance), and the importance of accurate modeling in ensuring reliable and secure power system operation. This event is intended for graduate students, researchers, and professionals interested in power systems, smart grids, and energy infrastructure. Speaker(s): Tam Room: 117, Bldg: New Electrical Building, 100 University dr., Prairie View, Texas, United States, 77446 |
