Divan教授長期緻力于電力電子、智能電網和電力系統分布式控制領域研究，帶領的科研團隊在“電力電子軟開關技術”和“分布式實時網格控制技術”等領域開展了一系列理論研究和産品研制工作，取得的一批創新科技成果受到美國公共事業部門和工業生産部門的大力支持。先後創辦四家企業，獲得著名投資者Bill Gates和風投公司Khosla Ventures出資支持，共計籌集超過1億6千萬美元資助。

簡介：分布式能源、微電網的快速增長以及發電側和負荷側間動态平衡需求，推動了電力變換器分布式實時控制技術的發展。從集中控制向大規模分散和分布式控制的轉變是發展分布式實時控制技術的嚴峻挑戰之一，主要表現在變換器及其控制策略、管理運行的架構設計和基礎設施等研究難點上。本次報告将讨論用于管理未來電網的電力變換器拓撲結構、控制策略和系統架構等方面，重點内容包括混合變壓器、固态變壓器和其他通用變換器等技術，以及介紹适用于未來電網設備管理的電網整合策略。

Topic：Power Electronics and Distributed Control for the Future Grid

Time：10am-12am，10th，June

Venue：3-217，West Building

Speaker：Prof Deepak Divan, Center for Distributed Energy, Georgia Tech

Deepak Divan is NAE member, past President of the IEEE Power Electronics Society and IEEE Fellow. He is now Director of the Center for Distributed Energy at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, GA. He is a prominent expert in the field of power electronics and is the inventor of power electronics soft-switch technology. He is also a recipient of the IEEE William E Newell Field Medal.

His field of research is in the areas of power electronics, power systems, smart grids and distributed control of power systems. His research team have carried out many influential researches in power electronics soft-switch technology and distributed online grid control technology. They have achieved many innovative technologies gaining great support from public utilities and industrial production departments in the United States. He has founded four companies and received funding support from well-known investor Bill Gates and venture capital firm Khosla Ventures. His team has raised more than $160 million funding.

Brief：The requirement for distributed real-time control in the future grid using power converters is being driven by rapid growth in distributed energy resources, microgrids and the need for dynamic real-time balancing between generation and loads. The move from centralized control to massively decentralized and distributed control raises further challenges, both in terms of the converters and feasible control strategies, as well as the architecture and infrastructure required to manage and operate such a system. This presentation will discuss power converter topologies, control strategies and system architecture for managing such a future grid and related loads. Key topics include hybrid transformers, solid state transformers and universal converters for a variety of applications, and grid integration strategies for managing a fleet of such devices to deliver value for the future and present grid.
