SUMMARY:Tech Webinar: Microgrid Optimization through Co-design
DESCRIPTION:Microgrid design is a complex problem. Choices for plant design (energy resource type\, generation capacities\, equipment locations)\, control strategies\, and the resulting dynamic performance are tightly interconnected. But existing microgrid design methods and tools typically overlook this coupling and fail to explicitly assess dynamic performance during the design phase. As a consequence\, these tools often produce suboptimal configurations that do not satisfy dynamic performance requirements once the design process is complete. To address this challenge\, FREEDM researchers have developed a plant-control co-design framework that simultaneously optimizes microgrid plant design and its control to minimize system costs while ensuring stable operation and enhanced dynamic performance. This webinar will introduce the tool and discuss the co-design algorithms. Register here at Eventbrite. Zoom link will be emailed the day before the webinar.
