A technical talk on hardware in the loop simulation for power systems presented by Dr. Ivan Celanovic

Vannevar Bush’s Differential Analyzer, as well as Apollo 13 mission physical twin were a few early examples of how system twins could provide transformational capability to engineers and scientist.  With advent of modern Digital Twins, which brought fidelity, flexibility, ease of use, and the ability to evolve/adapt and learn digital twins have been fueling revolution in many disciplines including power electronics and intelligent power and energy systems.  In this talk we will cover the history of power systems simulation and focus on advanced modeling and simulation of power electronics and digital power systems as they pertain to building future grid with deep penetration of renewables. We will highlight modeling and simulation of Battery Energy Storage Systems and focus on high-fidelity digital twin and hardware in the loop simulation and discuss vast opportunities that digital twin are bringing as modeling, data, and machine learning converge.
