About the Masterclass
This Masterclass is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding and practical experience in conducting real-time Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) experiments for the grid integration of offshore renewable energy systems. Participants will engage in lectures, demonstrations, and hands-on activities, gaining expertise in designing, modeling, and executing real-time simulations using advanced devices such as real-time simulators, grid emulators, and energy storage emulators.
The event will take place at the University of Warwick, featuring access to state-of-the-art facilities, including the Renewable Integration and Smart Grid Lab. Participants will also benefit from networking opportunities and a Q&A session with the Course Director, Professor Xiaowei Zhao.
Key Topics Covered
Introduction to Real-Time Simulations
Experimental hardware-in-the-loop tests
Ancillary service provision of offshore renewable energies (OREs)
Offshore HVDC transmissions
Hydrogen integration
Artificial Intelligence applications
Cybersecurity considerations
Pricing and Registration
The general participant rate is £1000, which includes course materials and lunch. However, eligible Early Career Researchers can attend for free, covering only travel and accommodation expenses.
