Over the next ten years, demand for electric power in the USA is expected to increase by about 20% while under the current plans the electric transmission capacity will increase only by 4%. In addition, the policy of open access to transmission systems that helped create the competitive electricity markets, also led to a huge increase in the number of energy transactions over the grid. This, together with a shortage of generation in some areas, require optimal usage of existing infrastructure and the addition of FACTS devices and intelligent controllers. A power system is a dynamic nonlinear time-varying multivariable complex process. Any optimization strategies must therefore be carried out in real time and adapt to continuously changing conditions. Recent developments in optimization techniques, intelligent controllers, power electronics and digital hardware offer possible solutions.Power system engineers are aware of the problems and challenges of having some form of global optimization of the planning and control of the power system. Control engineers on the other hand have developed algorithms for solving control problems. Power electronics experts have knowledge of how to design and control high power FACTS devices when Inserted into power systems. This proposal is for holding a workshop to bring these groups together and to focus on discussions leading to fundamental technical solutions to the optimal control of the electric power network in view of the current energy crisis and to avoid the crisis in the future. Thirty persons from both academia and industry, will meet for three days. The program will consist of seven sessions, each of which will address salient issues. The outcome will be a report which summarizes the discussions, identifies challenges, strengths and weaknesses, and proposes a way forward to address the weaknesses. This should lead to more interdisciplinary research.

在接下来的十年中，预计美国对电力的需求将增加约20％，而在当前计划下，电动传输能力仅会增加4％。此外，开放访问传输系统的政策有助于创造竞争性的电力市场，这也导致了电网上能源交易的数量大大增加。这与某些领域的发电不足一起需要最佳使用现有基础架构以及添加事实设备和智能控制器。电源系统是动态的非线性时间变化多变量复合过程。因此，任何优化策略都必须实时执行并适应不断变化的条件。优化技术，智能控制器，电力电子和数字硬件的最新发展提供了可能的解决方案。功率系统工程师意识到对电源系统的计划和控制的全球优化形式的问题和挑战。另一方面，控制工程师开发了解决控制问题的算法。电力电子专家有了解如何设计和控制高功率事实设备时的知识。该建议是为了举办一个研讨会，以将这些团体聚集在一起，并专注于讨论，从而鉴于当前的能源危机，为电力网络的最佳控制提供了基本的技术解决方案，并避免了将来的危机。来自学术界和工业的三十个人将开会三天。该计划将由七个会议组成，每个会议都将解决显着问题。结果将是一份报告，总结了讨论，确定挑战，优势和劣势，并提出了解决这些弱点的前进的道路。这应该导致更多的跨学科研究。
