IEEE PES FORT WORTH MONTHLY MEETING – NOVEMBER 9TH, 2021

Fort Worth IEEE PES members, we will have our next IEEE PES virtual meeting on November 9th from 11:30am to 1:00pm. We have Dr. Mahesh Morjaria from Terabase Energy Inc, speaking on the IEEE Standard for Utility-Scale Solar, Storage, and Wind Plants. Please attend if you can!  

 

IEEE Standard for Utility-Scale Solar, Storage and Wind Plants

An overview of the IEEE P2800 draft standard that is targeted for large-scale solar, storage and wind plants will be presented. The draft technical minimum requirements specified in P2800 for the interconnection of large-scale, transmission- and sub-transmission-connected inverter-based resources (IBRs) may become important elements in the North American and international framework to maintain the reliability of the bulk power system with increasing amounts of IBRs, including those radially connected via VSC-HVDC facilities to the grid. This webinar aims to review the purpose and scope of the draft standard along with selected draft requirements; followed by time for Q&A. The IEEE P2800 draft standard has successfully passed the IEEE SA initial ballot and has reached almost a 90% approval rate among the SA balloters in its 1st recirculation. At the time of this webinar, the draft may have undergone its 2nd recirculation and could be on its path towards approval by the IEEE SA Standards Board with publication expected in 2022.
