1 July 2013 Chapter Meeting Announcement
The University of Hawai’i Smart Sustainable Microgrid Project
EXCOM, Buffet and Hawaii Section COM19/SP01 Chapter Technical Talk
Please note: To help with the cost of the buffet, members pay $5.00 and non-members $10.00.
For student members and the speaker, there is no charge.Title: The University of Hawai’i Smart Sustainable Microgrid Project
Abstract: This talk starts by discussing Hawai’i’s energy landscape and the Renewable Energy and Island Sustainability (REIS) program. The state of Hawai’i and the US Department of Energy (DOE) signed a memorandum of understanding in 2008 known as the Hawai’i Clean Energy Initiative (HCEI) requiring 70% of Hawaii’s energy come from clean sources by 2030.
At the beginning of 2009 we formed a multidisciplinary research and education program at the University of Hawai’i at Manoa, (REIS) to focus on renewable energy, sustainability, and smart grids. The REIS group won an internal UHM sustainability competition in 2009 and in 2010 won a DOE work force training grant in the Strategic Training and Education in Power Systems. We discuss goals of our group including building the REIS program, research and education activities, and interfacing with other UHM sustainability efforts, outside academic institutions, industry, and government.
We then discuss the University of Hawai’i Manoa (UHM) Smart Sustainable Microgrid Project. This project is in coordination with the UHM Department of Electrical Engineering, UHM facilities, and Hawaiian Electric Company. We discuss some of the goals and research of this project which include; sensing and monitoring, modeling and analysis, optimization and control, and social and economic and policy considerations. This talk focuses on applying signal processing methods to the sensing and monitoring project and also the modeling and analysis project. We also discuss a new Smart Campus Energy Lab and the UHM microgrid which will serve as a laboratory testbed.
