MIT Energy Initiative IAP Course: Computational modeling tools for promoting low-carbon electricity
January 25-29, 9:00 am-1:00 pm ET
Registration deadline: January 19, 2021

This 5-session intensive activity presents power system analysis techniques that will help in modeling and understanding the role of electric power systems in a carbon-constrained economy. The massive deployment of intermittent renewable energy sources, the anticipated surge of active demand response, and the development of smart grids are among the challenges that must be faced by mathematical models for optimization, analysis, and simulation of the complex decision-making processes in power systems. Apart from a theoretical description of the models, the instructors will provide students with a collection of prototypes that will allow them to run study cases and to understand the effect of the different mathematical formulations on the outcomes. The use of these models in some real-world applications will also be presented.


This activity is open to the MIT community (students, staff, faculty, and alum). To sign up, email Karen Tapia-Ahumada (katapia@mit.edu) by January 19.
