India is struggling to meet the electric power demands of a fast expanding economy. Restructuring of the power industry has only increased several challenges for the power system engineers. A major chunk of the power losses is a direct derivative of the poor management of distribution networks. Distribution automation (DA) has been aimed at reducing losses, and improving reliability and financial...
Common Information Model (CIM) is emerging as a standard for information modelling for power control centers. While, IEC 61850 by International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is emerging as a standard for achieving interoperability and automation at the substation level. In future, once these two standards are well adopted, the issue of integration of these standards becomes imminent. Some efforts...
The Western Regional Load Dispatch Centre (WRLDC) has been successful in implementing the Power Network Analysis (PNA) sub-system of the Energy Management System (EMS) package supplied by M/s.GE after proper tuning of State Estimator(SE) to ensure that the SE output is suitable for use in real time grid operation. Usage of Contingency Analysis (CA) in real time operation aids in better situational...
Despite it's now well-known technical prowess, a large proportion of the Indian rural population still does not have access to electricity. Further, the Government of India has been exhorting private companies to participate in the national effort of extending electricity access to the rural consumer. However, private companies have to balance shareholder and social objectives. Further, carbon emission...
The Electrical Engineering undergraduate programme at Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay (IIT-B) gives students an exposure to power engineering subjects, while the department offers a specialization in Power Electronics and Power Systems at the graduate level. Whereas the laboratories in power engineering are an integral part of both programmes, traditional power engineering laboratories, i.e...
Indian power sector is growing at an enormous pace. Building and operating such a power system is a challenging problem. The power network which carries the MWs across large distances is analogous to a "muscle system" of human body. Likewise, the entire range of associated monitoring and control network is analogous to a "nervous system". While strengthening the muscles is important...
