Presented by: Dr. Milad Izadi, Senior Power Systems Engineer, Electric Power Engineers, LLC Synchro-Waveforms (also known as time-synchronized waveform measurements) are a powerful new technology for monitoring and situational awareness of power systems. Synchro-Waveforms are obtained from a new class of smart grid sensors called Waveform Measurement Units (WMUs). WMUs provide precise time-synchronized voltage waveform and current waveform measurements in time-domain. They show the wave-shape of the voltage and current at very high resolutions. WMUs operate at very high reporting rates, such as at 256 samples per cycle, i.e., 15,360 recordings per second. This is much higher than the sampling rate of practically every other smart grid sensor, such as phasor measurement units. At such a high reporting rate, a WMU reports 7,962,624,000 data points per day. This is an overwhelming amount of data that requires high-performance computing to analyze. Further, WMUs use a global positioning system (GPS) clock to precisely synchronize the sampling of waveforms across different WMUs, enabling precise time synchronization of the reported synchro-waveforms. The availability of synchro-waveform measurements can significantly enhance our understanding and awareness about the status of the power electric grid than traditional measurements. Therefore, synchro-waveforms introduce a new era of power systems monitoring and situational awareness. Synchro-waveforms offer groundbreaking applications in 1) event detection and classification, 2) event location identification, 3) topology identification, 4) network parameter estimation 5) asset monitoring, 6) incipient faults detection, and more importantly 7) wildfire monitoring. Presenter bio: Dr. Milad Izadi is a Senior power systems engineer at Electric Power Engineers, LLC. Dr. Izadi initiated the new topic of Synchro-Waveforms (also known as time-synchronized waveform measurements) in 2019. Granted the first U.S. patent on the topic of synchro-waveforms. He received the Best PhD Dissertation Award on the topic of Synchro-Waveforms from the Smart Grid Synchronized Measurements and Analytics Conference in 2024.

The 13th IEEE Electrical Energy Storage Applications and Technologies (EESAT) conference will be held January 20-21, 2025 at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Charlotte Uptown, Charlotte, NC. EESAT has been the premier technical forum for presenting advances in energy storage technologies and applications since 2000. This forum is sponsored by the IEEE Energy Storage and Stationary Battery (ESSB) Committee, under the IEEE Power and Energy Society, with continuing support from the DOE Office of Electricity and the national laboratories. The technical program will highlight advances in electricity storage technologies including new battery chemistries, such as flow, sodium, zinc, and other battery designs, flywheels, hydrogen storage, PS, CASE, and novel approaches such as demand response as storage programs. At the same time, the forum will highlight advances in power conversion systems that make grid-scale as well as distributed/renewable energy storage more efficient and effective; promote advances in energy management and device management systems that maximize value while enabling safe and reliable operation; and finally, discuss advances in markets, standards, and policy that unlock energy storage as a critical enabler of the energy transition. This conference aims to foster a multi-discipline, systems-oriented, collaborative environment for energy storage researchers and professionals engaged in the technical aspects of energy storage to share ideas and find collaborative ways to solve big problems together. We cultivated a community of practice around energy storage research that cuts across the boundaries that normally divide technical societies and journals. 
The 2025 IEEE Energy Storage & Stationary Battery (ESSB) Committee Winter meeting and the 2025 Electrical Energy Storage Applications & Technology (EESAT) Conference are being held together (co-located) this year in Charlotte, NC the week of January 20 through 24, 2025. The EESAT Conference will be held Monday, January 20 – Tuesday, January 21 and registered attendees are invited to join in on an social event at the NASCAR Hall of Fame on Tuesday evening included in the EESAT registration cost. Guests are invited attend the social event for an additional fee. The ESSB Committee meeting will be on Wednesday, January 22 – Friday, January 24. Attendees and their guests are invited to join in on the EESAT sponsored social event on Tuesday evening for an additional fee. Learn More »

Blockchain technology is gaining momentum in revolutionizing power systems amidst the global transition towards renewable energy sources and climate change mitigation. As power systems evolve from large-scale, centralized systems to networks of small-sized, distributed electricity systems, blockchain’s decentralized ledger capabilities offer efficient transaction management for small-scale power systems. With features like tamper-resistant data, privacy protection, smart contracts, and real-time settlement, blockchain facilitates secure and transparent energy transactions. Integrated with advancements in smart grids and microgrids, blockchain enables peer-to-peer energy transactions, better grid management, and real-time payments. Hence, the application of BCT in energy industry is being investigated rigorously. This tutorial offers a comprehensive introduction to blockchain technology, covering its fundamental principles, components, operational mechanisms, and potential applications within power systems. Additionally, the tutorial will include a live demonstration on how to use blockchain platforms such as Ethereum and Cosmos. Presenter(s): Disha L Dinesha, PhD Research Scholar, Indian Institute of Science

This tutorial covers the principles of load forecasting for distribution planning with a focus on the change in growth and characteristics of load introduced by electrification. The course begins with the planning process and load forecast as its first building block. It will cover the key requirements of a robust and defendable forecast via bottom-up and top-down approaches, will review several proven methods, and will discuss modern techniques for end-use growth to forecast electrification trends. Instructors will discuss the concepts related to magnitude, temporal (e.g., 8,760-hr forecasts), spatial, and weather normalization aspects of forecast. The course will study legacy methods the industry used for forecasting in past when it faced major load. The course drills down into different components of transportation and stationary electrification forecast including light, medium and heavy vehicles, transit, charging networks, and building electrification. Finally, approaches to address uncertainty in forecast and its implications will be discussed. Presenter(s): • Lee Willis (Author of Spatial Electric Load Forecasting, and Power Distribution Planning Reference Books (CRC)).
