Grid integration of renewable energy requires forward-looking planning process and increased emphasizes on reliability, resilience, and equity. Power-electronics based energy generation including solar, wind, distributed energy resources (DERs), and various types of grid-tied energy storage and emerging loads, are reshaping grid operator’s understanding on interconnection level performance and responses. Going forward, emerging artificial intelligence and deep integration of information technologies (IT) and OT, e.g., through the deep deployment of the fifth generation communication (5G) technologies, may inspire new perspectives and pathways to support developments of PE theory, modeling, lab-based testing and validation, and real-world implementation and demonstrations.Dr. Xiaoyuan Fan will present PNNL’s research work funded by U.S. Department of Energy, some of the highlights include research outcomes and collaborations on power electronics from DOE SC/ASCR 5G Energy FRAME project, DOE OE/AGM Wide-area Oscillation project, PR100 project, and PNNL’s research facilities and labs.

We will look at a clever design for determining how much oil remains in an oil tank. Such a device can be used by oil delivery services to keep track of their customers. Oil delivery services monitor their customers' tanks for a few reasons: - for contract deliveries, to avoid “runouts”, - for COD deliveries, to prompt customers for a fill, - to ensure customer retention, and - to eliminate the reliance on the K-factor, which is the basis for a guess as to what is the level of an unmonitored tank. Arnold Stillman, founder of POEM Technology, the company that developed this system will present the design of a tank monitor that uses a pressure tube to measure liquid levels. Using a pressure tube allows monitoring buried tanks where competing sensing methods do not work. Some of the topics that will be discussed include: - The economics of heating oil delivery - Types of tanks - Types of tank monitors - Pumpless manometry - Cellular IoT Economics - IoT Protocols - IoT Hardware Design - IoT backend - User interface Speaker(s): Arnold Stillman Agenda: 7:00 PM Networking and Announcements 7:20 PM Presentation Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/441928
