Low Carbon Power System with High Penetration of Renewable Energy Resources

This program is organized by School of Electrical Engineering, Southeast University. It is designed for international students all over the world to provide plentiful summer online courses. Combined with the lectures given by the well-known experts in electrical engineering, the International Summer School aims to promote education reform and development for undergraduate or graduate students, which can create an innovative atmosphere for college students. In this way, the graduate students can better understand the field of international cutting-edge academic and research advances, broaden academic horizons, broaden scientific research ideas, improve academic literacy, strengthen the awareness of innovation and entrepreneurship, as well as improve the innovation ability and training quality of students.

The courses will be given by well-known foreign experts and teachers majoring in Electrical Engineering, Southeast University will provide professional guidance for the students; the implementation duration of this project is 4 weeks, with a total of 40 class hours. It is suggested that it can replace the practical courses in the professional training plan. Moreover, extra SRTP credits can be earned for participating in the above-mentioned lectures.

This course consists of interactive MathWorks Webinars（MathWorks公司特邀在线课程）and course projects under the supervision from Southeast University faculty and Experts from MathWorks.

Our modern urban power system is experiencing the Third Energy Revolution that features integration of high penetration of renewables, e.g. wind and solar. However, renewable generation is known to be intermittent and stochastic that cannot match the electricity demand well. This “mismatch” may significantly deteriorate the security operation of power systems. Widely installing energy storage systems and adopting transportation electrification with high penetration of electric vehicles, are possible solutions; but are extremely expensive. This talk discusses how existing & cheap demand-side resources, including various kinds of transportation electrification infrastructure, can be utilized as generalized storage systems to balance the electricity supply and demand, which will further promote the integration of renewables and decarbonize our future smart cities.

Wind plants can increase annual energy production with advanced control algorithms by coordinating the operating points of individual turbine controllers across the farm. It remains a challenge to achieve performance improvements in practice because of the difficulty of utilizing models that capture pertinent complex aerodynamic phenomena while remaining amenable to control design. We formulate a multistage stochastic optimal control problem for wind farm power maximization and show that it can be solved analytically via dynamic programming. In this way, the renewable energy operation framework could enable efficient integration of uncertainties in the low carbon power system. In particular, the model incorporates state- and input-dependent multiplicative noise whose distributions capture stochastic wind fluctuations. The optimal control policies and value functions explicitly incorporate the moments of these distributions, establishing a connection between wind flow data and optimal feedback control.

This course consists of interactive Webinars as well as Writing Contest.

• Igniting the Power of Computer Audition for Healthcare: An Overview

• What is good research?

• What is SCI, EI, h-index, citation, conference and journal?

• How to find the scholar information and follow their research?

• How to write academic paper?

• How to write research proposal?

• How to do research at the beginning stage?

• An example novel field: computer audition for healthcare

This topic is about the writing and standardization of research papers in science and technologies, especially for the students who haven’t written a paper yet. Three questions will be mainly discussed in this webinar:

• What is an academic paper? I will introduce all the sections of an academic paper, including the paper’s title, authors, abstract, introduction, main body, case study, conclusion, and reference.

• How to write a good paper? I will share some ideas about academic writing on sentences, equations, tables, and figures. Clear sentences and beautiful figures can reduce the paper’s understanding difficulty and increase acceptance opportunity.

• What tools can we use to improve work efficiency? I will share some useful software for searching literature, paper’s auto-typesetting, looking up English words and grammars, drawing graphs, and even the headache color matching.

Finally, some time will be reserved for Q&A. Welcome to join us!
