IEEE PES Live Online: 2023 Top 5 Papers of the IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid
IEEE PES Live Online: 2023 Top 5 Papers of the IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid
Presented by: Gregor Verbic, The University of Sydney This webinar aims to showcase the Top 5 papers selected in 2023 among the ones published in the IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid. The IEEE-TSG is a cross-disciplinary journal aimed at disseminating the results of research on and development of the smart grid, which encompasses energy networks where prosumers, electric transportation, distributed energy resources, and communications are integral and interactive components, as in the case of microgrids and active distribution networks interfaced with transmission systems. Presenters of Selected Papers: Qinran Hu – His research interests include power system optimization, demand aggregation, and virtual power plants. Yi Wang – His research interests include data analytics in smart grids, energy forecasting, multienergy systems, Internet of Things, and cyber–physical–social energy systems. Xin Chen – He was a recipient of the Outstanding Student Paper Award in IEEE Conference on Decision and Control in 2021, the Best Student Paper Award Finalist in the IEEE Conference on Control Technology and Applications in 2018, and the Best Conference Paper Award in the IEEE PES General Meeting in 2016. Md Habib Ullah – His research interests include transactive energy management, distributed P2P energy trading, and energy market. Vijay A S – His research interests include real-time simulation, power-level emulation, power electronics in distributed generation, and power quality.

IEEE PES Live Online: The Role of Small Modular Reactors in the Energy Transition
IEEE PES Live Online: The Role of Small Modular Reactors in the Energy Transition
Presented by: Jonas Kristiansen Nøland, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) Martin Hjelmeland, NTNU This webinar: There is an unprecedented need to expand the toolbox of solutions to boost the scalability of clean power and energy systems. Amidst this challenge, nuclear energy is increasingly recognized as an important player in the path toward deep decarbonization of the global energy mix, where small modular reactors (SMRs) are touted as the next big thing in the nuclear sector. This webinar provides an overview of SMR concepts currently under development and deployment. We show their technical features and how they could have a complementary role alongside renewable energies. Nevertheless, there are currently some uncertainties in the techno-economic competitiveness of SMRs, such as whether they can leverage the economics of mass production over their inherent lack of economics of scale. We present expected learning curves to give insights into SMR’s economic competitiveness and potential role as a disruptive solution in the energy transition. Presenter bios: Jonas Kristiansen Nøland (Senior Member, IEEE) received the M.Sc. degree in electric power engineering from the Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden, in 2013, and the Ph.D. degree in engineering physics from Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden, in 2017. He is currently involved in the NERES project, exploring nuclear energy’s role in a renewable energy system. Dr. Nøland serves as an Associate Editor for the IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ENERGY CONVERSION and the IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONICS, and as the Chair of the IEEE Power and Energy Society (PES) Norwegian Chapter since 2022. Martin N. Hjelmeland (Member, IEEE) received the M.Sc. degree and the Ph.D. degree in electric power engineering in 2015 and 2019, respectively, His research interests lie in the integration of low-carbon energy sources in the energy system, with a particular focus on the role of nuclear energy. He is currently involved in the strategic research project “Nuclear Energy’s role in a Renewable Energy System (NERES)”.
