WISE Public Lecture

Waterloo Institute for Sustainable Energy

Join us for a thought-provoking WISE Public Lecture where we'll delve into fascinating topics and explore new ideas together!

Engineering 2, University of Waterloo

WISE Public LectureDate: August 1Time: 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm (EST)Location: Engineering 2 (E2), Room 2350Zoom Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/s/4640082022?omn=84861250239#successDescription:Please join us in person or on Zoom for a discussion on the well-functioning planning, grid access, and interconnection procedures that are key to ensuring that transmission systems support competition in generation and a sustainable and reliable electricity supply. The ongoing transformation of the power sector is increasing the number and variety of resources seeking grid interconnection, thus requiring proper and timely expansion and reinforcement of the transmission system. This presentation reviews recent changes in the Chilean regulatory framework to address current challenges, identifying changes that have had a positive impact and those that have not. Following the presentation, a discussion can be held to compare regulatory frameworks in Canada and Chile, identify common challenges, and explore how both countries have addressed them. The talk will also discuss a project based on the novel ML assisted algorithm for solving the multi-year TNEP problem. The proposal is to add a binary classifier into the CG algorithm in a way that can improve the convergence time and guarantee global optimality. The results show that the binary classifier has an accuracy above 90% for estimating the value of the binary variables. Additionally, the integration of the binary classifier into the Column Generation algorithm allowed to reduce the computational time by over 50%.
