Technical Evaluation of Electricity Grid Systems

The Technical Evaluation of Electricity Grid Systems course is a professional training course from Informa Connect Academy that equips engineers and managers to evaluate and optimise electricity grid performance. It covers the technical evaluation methodologies, engineering principles and innovative solutions grids need to stay stable, reliable and efficient while renewable generation is added.

The course addresses the challenges facing grids directly: ageing infrastructure, peak demand management, cybersecurity threats and renewable integration. It is built for the Middle East context, where rapid urbanisation, industrial expansion and the shift to renewables have made resilient grids critical to the region's energy goals.

• Power Systems Training: Gain expertise in conducting technical evaluations of electricity grid systems using industry-leading methodologies, tools and frameworks that ensure optimal performance and regulatory compliance.
• Power System Analysis: Master the engineering principles that optimise grid performance, including load flow analysis, voltage regulation and reactive power management against real-world constraints.
• ETAP Training Tools: Use grid analysis software including PSS®E, ETAP and DIgSILENT PowerFactory to evaluate a sample grid system and identify measurable areas for improvement.
• Smart Grid Technology: Explore advanced models and strategies for grid stability, resilience and modernisation, leveraging smart grid technologies, energy storage systems and digital transformation.
• Grid Reliability Assessment: Develop quantitative and qualitative assessment skills, from load forecasting and reliability analysis to stakeholder and policy impact assessment, for data-driven reporting.
