This course is designed to introduce advanced technologies for power system dynamic analysis. The course focuses on low-carbon transmission networks dominated by inverter-based resources (IBR), to align with the ongoing transformation of the power systems. It begins with a review of the key challenges in low-carbon power systems, followed by an in-depth discussion of system dynamics and stability issues, including voltage stability, angle and frequency stability, small-signal stability, and transient stability. Conventional and innovative solutions to these issues will be introduced, as well as the system protection principles. Additional relevant topics, such as grid-forming inverters, system strength assessment, load modelling, and professional software, will also be covered to provide a comprehensive understanding. The course aims to let students master the necessary technologies and skills for power system analysis and develop insights into future advancements.

Remark:

To pass the course, students are required to achieve at least 30% in course work and 30% in the examination.
