Driven by the urgent need to develop cleaner and more efficient, reliable, and resilient electric power grids, the energy sector is currently moving towards an era of smart grids. The main pillar of a smart grid setup is the evolution from a vertically integrated, partially-automated and producer-controlled electric power network to a decentralized one that enables interactions among customers, network operators, and power producers. In response to smart grid initiatives, electrical distribution grids are undergoing a major transition towards a smart distribution grids (SDGs) structure characterized by high penetration of distributed and renewable generation (DG), plug-in electric vehicles (PEV), energy storage devices, and grid-automation devices. The structure of SDGs will be divided into set of microgrids with sufficient generation to meet all or most of their local loads. Yet, major technical challenges face the realization of SDG vision due to its emergent nature. To that end, the proposed research program aims to develop a unifying framework for design, planning and control strategies of SDGs to facilitate timely and safe transition of distribution grids. In particular, three main projects will be conducted in the proposed research program. First, developing new design and planning strategies for the structure of SDGs (e.g. Optimal allocation and sizing of new components and technologies in SDGs, optimal set of microgrids that can be identified, created, and designed in a typical SDG and optimal configuration of the created microgrids). Second, developing a comprehensive multi-agent distributed control scheme to facilitate a scalable real-time cooperative control in SDGs. The proposed control scheme will integrate several operational scenarios and control objectives for SDGs clustered into microgrids with different configurations and modes of operation; important among these are online self-healing, power quality, and voltage stability. Third, developing real-time smart coordinated control schemes to accommodate high penetration of PEVs into aging distribution grids. The proposed research will help distribution power utilities to eliminate the current barriers towards the deployment of sustainable and clean energy resources, and smart grid technologies into the utility grid. The proliferation of these new essentials will help improve the overall power system performance by increasing the system reliability, power quality and efficiency while minimizing the environmental impact of the current central power generation plants. The proposed research is expected to create a knowledge-base and tools that are extremely useful to the energy system industry to facilitate the safe transition of current distribution grids into SDGs through better understanding of new requirements, upgrades, and concepts. The proposed research will place the theoretical foundations in the emerging area of SDGs research. Further, it will provide students with skills in vital areas of smart grids and sustainable energy. The energy and environment have been identified as a driving force for the new energy economy; Canada is a world leader in this area thus the accomplishment of the proposed research plan will have significant and measurable economic and environmental impact to Canada.

在迫切需要开发清洁剂，更高效，可靠和弹性的电力电网的驱动下，能源部门目前正朝着智能电网的时代发展。智能电网设置的主要支柱是从垂直集成，部分自动化和生产者控制的电力网络到分散的电力网络的演变，该分散的电力网络可以使客户，网络运营商和电力生产商之间进行交互。为了响应智能电网计划，电气分配网格正在向智能分配网格（SDGS）结构进行重大过渡，其特征在于分布式和可再生能源生成（DG），插件电动汽车（PEV），储能设备和网格自动化设备的渗透率高。可持续发展目标的结构将分为具有足够产生的微电网组，以满足其所有或大多数局部负载。 然而，由于其新兴的性质，主要的技术挑战面临可持续发展目标的实现。为此，拟议的研究计划旨在为可持续发展目标的设计，规划和控制策略开发一个统一的框架，以促进及时，安全的分销网格过渡。特别是，将在拟议的研究计划中进行三个主要项目。首先，为可持续发展目标的结构开发了新的设计和计划策略（例如，在可持续发展目标中的新组件和技术的最佳分配和规模，可以在典型的SDG中识别，创建和设计的最佳微电网以及创建的微电网配置的最佳微电网组合）。其次，开发一种综合的多代理分布式控制方案，以促进可持续发展目标中可扩展的实时合作控制。所提出的控制方案将集成几种操作方案和控制目标，用于将SDG聚集到具有不同配置和操作模式的微电网中。其中重要的是在线自我修复，电源质量和电压稳定性。第三，开发实时智能协调的控制方案，以适应PEV高渗透到衰老分配网格中。 拟议的研究将有助于分发电源公用事业，以消除当前部署可持续和清洁能源资源的障碍，并智能网格技术进入公用事业网格。这些新必需品的扩散将通过提高系统的可靠性，功率质量和效率来帮助提高整体电源系统性能，同时最大程度地减少当前中央发电厂的环境影响。预计拟议的研究将创建一种知识基础和工具，这些工具对能源系统行业非常有用，以通过更好地理解新需求，升级和概念来促进当前分销网格到可持续发展目标的安全过渡。拟议的研究将把理论基础置于可持续发展目标研究的新兴领域。此外，它将为学生提供智能网格和可持续能源的重要领域的技能。能源和环境已被确定为新能源经济的驱动力。加拿大是该领域的世界领导者，因此拟议的研究计划的完成将对加拿大产生重大且可衡量的经济和环境影响。
