What does this programme cover?

Power system stability is tested in seconds: a line trip, a lost generator or a slow voltage decline can turn into a wide-area blackout long before operators understand the sequence, and restoration then depends on plans that were rarely drilled. This Core Concept course prepares transmission, generation and control-room staff to read frequency, voltage and rotor angle behaviour, design defence measures such as load shedding, remedial action schemes and controlled islanding, and restart a grid from black start sources. Participants produce a Blackout Risk Review and Restoration Plan for a sample grid.
