Colloquium: Power Flow Control Solutions for Demand Side Management using Power Flow Coloring, Dr. Saher Javaid (Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST), Japan), Wednesday, November 30, 2022, 11:00-12:00 EET.
The Department of Computer Science at the University of Cyprus cordially invites you to the Colloquium entitled:
Power Flow Control Solutions for Demand Side Management using Power Flow Coloring
 |
Speaker: Dr. Saher Javaid |
Abstract:
Power flow control is essential to avoid energy wastage, power blackouts, and to reduce power imbalance issues. This is becoming difficult, due to the inability to match fluctuating renewable generation and the dynamic power demand. The concept of Power Flow Coloring (PFC) is proposed which attaches a unique identification (ID) to each power flow between a pair of a power source and a power load. Based on PFC, a cooperative distributed power flow control is introduced which accommodates the effects of power fluctuations of distributed energy resources and power loads. However, due to power limitations of devices, the capacity of storage devices, and power flow channels, the power balance may not be achieved. Therefore, system conditions are proposed which provide guidelines for a power flow system to continue safe operation against power fluctuations.
Short Bio:
Saher Javaid received B.CS (Bachelor of Computer Science) and M.Sc. (Master of Science in Information Technology) from Allama Iqbal Open University in 2005 and University of the Punjab, Pakistan in 2010, respectively. She received her Ph.D. degree in Information Science from Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST), Japan in 2014. She was a visiting lecturer at University of the Punjab in Pakistan. She also worked as visiting lecturer at University of Education in Pakistan. During 2014-2017, she gained employment at the Department of Intelligence Science and Technology, Graduate School of Informatics, Kyoto University as an Assistant Professor within the context of the i-Energy (Informationization of e-power flows by integrating information and e-power networks) project. Since 2017, she has been working at Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST) as an assistant professor. Her research interests include distributed sensing and control, energy on demand, power flow coloring, and smart energy management system. She has published 40+ peer-reviewed papers on realizing efficient and versatile energy management systems for future homes, buildings, local communities, and micro-grid.
