  1. Developing the Smart Grid Course at Case Western Reserve University 7/25/2014 Mingguo Hong, CWRU

  2. Power and Energy Courses Offered at CWRU • EECS 368/468: Power System Analysis I • EECS 369/469: Power System Analysis II • EECS 397/600: Distribution System Analysis. • EECS 370/470: Smart Grid. • EECS 374/474: Advanced Control and Energy Systems.

  3. The Smart Grid Course • Offered in Spring 2013 for the 1st time. • Enrollment of 14 students. • Well received. Instructor Mingguo Hong was nominated for university teaching excellence award during his teaching of the course. • To be offered again in Spring 2015, with major enhancement plans. Hong received a university grant (Nord Grant) for $4,300 to purchase both hardware and software sets, to support student projects. The hardware purchase includes some rooftop PV panels, a small wind turbine, a battery, and smart meter sets. The software purchase includes added seats of PSCAD licenses and an AIMMS network license.

  4. The Smart Grid Course Topics • Overview of the power system infrastructure and US national electricity policy. • Electric transmission system operation. • Electric distribution system operation. • Electricity market. • Overview of the Smart Grid initiatives. • Advanced Meter Infrastructure. • Reviewable generation technologies. • Demand response resources. • Distributed generation and microgrids. • Stored energy technologies. • Interoperability standards. • Impact of Smart Grid technologies on power system reliability and market design.

  5. Enhancement Plan for the Next Offering • With a broad range of topics, there need to be several focus themes to accommodate students with diverse interests and backgrounds. For the next course offering, the following focus themes have been identified: • Power electronics (e.g., studies of invertor technologies.) • Sensing (e.g., studies of smart meter technologies and data.) • Control (e.g., generation control of wind and solar resources.) • Analytics (e.g., optimization of network operation, electricity markets.) • Enhance student projects for each focus theme. • Engage students in projects from the beginning of the semester. • Leverage the advanced laboratory facilities in the Case School of Engineering, e.g., the Sears Lab (http://circuitslab.case.edu/) and ThinkBox (http://engineering.case.edu/thinkbox/).
