Session Abstract
The large-scale integration of renewable energy resources, power electronic devices, and hybrid AC/DC networks is transforming modern power systems into highly coupled, low-inertia, and multi-timescale dynamic systems. Disturbances can propagate through complex electrical and control interactions across regions and heterogeneous devices, potentially leading to stability degradation, protection malfunctions, power imbalance, and risk escalation. Meanwhile, emerging resources such as grid-forming renewable generation, HVDC systems, energy storage, and controllable loads provide new opportunities for enhancing system resilience while introducing significant challenges to system analysis, risk awareness, and coordinated control.
This special session focuses on key theories and technologies for improving the security, stability, and resilience of new power systems. Topics include fault propagation and risk evolution mechanisms, stability analysis and assessment, dynamic risk early warning and situational awareness, grid-forming converter control and fault ride-through capability, coordinated AC/DC system operation, multi-timescale resource coordination and optimization, protection and security control, and resilience enhancement under extreme events. The session aims to advance innovative theories, methodologies, and technologies for secure, reliable, and resilient power system operation.
