This training course gives you sufficient knowledge about generator dynamics, and concept of stability in power system operation. Also, you will learn how electricity is generated in generators from an AC current supply and what intermediate steps are needed to deliver the generated power to the customers with high reliability.

By the end of the course, you‘ll be able to:

  • Apply and gain an in-depth knowledge on economic dispatch of power plants
  • Identify the characteristics of power generation units and introduce them to the economic dispatch of thermal units and the methods of solution
  • Discuss the transmission system effects, unit commitment and the generation with limited energy supply
  • Implement the production cost models and be able to adapt the control of generation
  • Use new techniques for solving old problems and new problem areas that are arising from changes in the system development patterns, regulatory structures, and economics
  • Solve complicated problems, involving both economic analysis and network analysis and illustrate the solving techniques with relatively simple problems

This course is made for 

  • Power system analysts and engineers, including generation and transmission planners, protection engineers
  • Power developers and marketers
  • Transmission Planning Engineer
  • Plant Operations Engineer (POE)
  • Regulatory staff, economic and management consultants
