Description

Strengthening the Resilience of Power Grids with Networked Microgrids. This project aims to address the challenge of electricity grid resilience during high-impact, low-probability events through innovative digital twins and quantum-inspired optimisations of microgrid clusters. This project will generate new knowledge in energy resilience using a pioneering model of interconnected systems to address the growing threats to power grids (and coupled utilities, such as communication and electrified transport) from extreme weather events. Expected outcomes include improved grid adaptability and enhanced cross-sector coordination in extreme events. Project success will boost the grid's ability to protect vulnerable communities and mitigate failures through dynamic coordination and reconfigurable control techniques.. Scheme: ARC Future Fellowships. Field: 4008 - Electrical Engineering. Lead: Prof Md Jahangir Hossain
