Team Research Directions

Our research team aims to develop advanced operation and control technologies to enhance the security, economy, and quality of energy supply infrastructures, supporting the widespread deployment of smart grids and energy internet in our country. Over the past decades, we have pioneered power system nonlinear optimal and robust control theory, power grid complexity theory, and engineering game theory, providing a solid theoretical foundation for improving the flexibility, efficiency, and cost reduction of power system operation and control. We have developed industrial prototypes of nonlinear robust power system stabilizers, cloud power system simulators, and large-scale compressed-air energy storage systems to meet the industrial demand for advanced technologies.

Main Directions:

1. Power system security analysis and disaster prevention

2. Operation and control of power and energy systems with high penetration of renewable energy

3. Energy conversion and storage technology in the Energy Internet

Our ongoing research programs include, but are not limited to:

1. Enhancing engineering game theory to consider more types of games and competitions, enabling the investigation and design of business models for the energy internet.

2. Developing cloud power system simulators based on high-performance supercomputers and parallel computing, and incorporating thermal and natural gas modules into the simulation platform; implementing smart design and big-data analytics.

3. Establishing several demonstration projects of large-scale compressed-air energy storage systems and micro energy internet.
