Description
As electrical grids evolve to accommodate growing demand, renewable energy integration, and emerging energy storage technologies, the role of power electronics (PE) has become indispensable. Cognitive PE represent a new frontier in grid management, leveraging real-time data, artificial intelligence (AI), and advanced control strategies to enhance grid resilience, safety, and adaptability. This special session focuses on how cognitive PE can transform grid infrastructure into a smarter, safer, and more stable system capable of responding autonomously to both internal and external challenges.Participants are invited to present new methodologies, case studies, and experimental results that demonstrate how cognitive PE can respond to diverse grid conditions, from weak grid scenarios to high-renewable environments, and address challenges such as power quality, reliability, and cybersecurity.
Suitable topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Adaptive and intelligent control for PE
• Reliability and resiliency enhancement techniques for cognitive PE
• Cybersecurity for PE devices and systems
• AI and machine learning for PE
• PE topologies and front-ends for active energy system and microgrids
• Advanced monitoring and protection techniques for PE-dominated power systems
• Power quality issues in PE-based power systems
• PE interfacing issues for energy storage devices and renewable energy sources
• Advanced coordinated control algorithms with minimal communication infrastructure
• Operation and dispatching of PE-based distribution systems with interconnected distributed energy resources
• Off-line, real-time and hardware-in-the-loop simulations of cognitive PE-interfaced power and energy systems.
