Chakrabortty Receives NSF Award for Research in Sustainable Power Networks

Sep 14, 2012

Dr. Aranya ChakraborttyAranya Chakrabortty has been awarded $360,000 by the National Science Foundation for research on SEP Collaborative: Integrating Heterogeneous Energy Resources For Sustainable Power Networks – A Systems Approach.

The award will run from September 15th, 2012 to August 31st, 2016.

Research Abstract

This project will take a unique approach in examining how management and control of large-scale and distributed energy resources can contribute to both stabilization and improving the performance of for power systems with high penetration of renewable energy. The research will involve a system theoretic end-to-end analysis from detailed characterization of the energy sources through propagation of these inputs through the power transmission and distribution network. An important aspect of the proposed research is the ability of this interdisciplinary team to examine not only the technical and physical system challenges but to include the related regulatory, policy and market challenges that must be dealt with in order to implement any proposed power system changes.
