题目：Future Energy Grids Without the Spin
讲座人：Prof. Yi Tang
讲座时间：10:00-12:00(北京时间)
内容简介： Climate change presents one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century for humanity. The growing awareness of global warming and the energy crisis has propelled worldwide research and innovation in decarbonization technologies that have the potential to revolutionize the way we produce and consume energy. In this talk, I will introduce the pivotal role that power electronics play in decarbonizing energy systems and how this technology transforms energy grids from relying on fossil fuel-based energy generation to renewable sources. I will highlight the challenges arising from this energy transition, particularly the reduced grid inertia due to the increasing use of "spin-free" power electronic devices. Furthermore, I will review several real-world large-scale blackout events associated with low inertia energy grids. Then, I will present several emerging power electronics-based solutions to the ever-decreasing grid inertia issue. The presentation will conclude with an outline of potential research directions and technological pathways toward achieving future cleaner and more resilient energy grids without the spin.
