The NSERC Industrial Research Chair (IRC) in Power Systems Simulation will harness the combinedcapabilities of the University of Manitoba's strong Electrical Power Engineering Group and six prominentindustrial partners in the power engineering field. These partners include Manitoba Hydro, a major utility withclose to 100% renewable energy generation; the Manitoba HVDC Research Centre, a major developer of powersystem simulation software; RTDS Technologies, a major manufacturer of real-time simulators for the powerindustry; and three Canadian Consulting Firms with strong expertise in Power System Modelling, namely,Teshmont Consultants, TransGrid Solutions and Electranix Corporation.The IRC, located at the University of Manitoba, will conduct research into improving the tools for modellinglarge power networks. It will develop new fast and accurate simulation platforms using the latest computingdevices such as Graphical Processing Units and Field Programmable gate arrays. The ability to conductultra-fast simulations will allow for simulation based optimal designs of power equipment, and also permitstatistical methods to be used to assess the stability and supply quality of power networks incorporatingrenewal energy sources which are erratic in nature. The platforms will also permit modeling ofcontinental-scale power systems and thus enable investigations into improving the security of power supplyusing energy transfers across wide geographical areas using high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmissionsystem overlays. The research will help the Canadian Power Systems Simulator Industry, which is already aworld leader to retain its competitive edge, and also yield more efficient energy transport solutions for theutility industry.Over the next 5 years, the IRC program will graduate over 25 skilled graduate students and post-doctoralfellows, thus making a significant contribution to the pool of highly qualified personnel in an area of vitalimportance to Canada.

NSERC 电力系统仿真工业研究主席 (IRC) 将利用曼尼托巴大学强大的电力工程小组和电力工程领域六个著名工业合作伙伴的综合能力。这些合作伙伴包括马尼托巴水电公司（Manitoba Hydro），这是一家接近 100% 可再生能源发电的大型公用事业公司；马尼托巴高压直流输电研究中心，电力系统仿真软件的主要开发商； RTDS Technologies，电力行业实时模拟器的主要制造商；以及三个在电力系统建模方面拥有丰富专业知识的加拿大咨询公司，即 Teshmont Consultants、TransGrid Solutions 和 Electranix Corporation。 IRC 位于曼尼托巴大学，将开展研究以改进大型电力网络建模工具。它将使用最新的计算设备（例如图形处理单元和现场可编程门阵列）开发新的快速且准确的模拟平台。进行超快速仿真的能力将允许基于仿真的电力设备优化设计，并且还允许使用统计方法来评估包含本质上不稳定的可再生能源的电力网络的稳定性和供电质量。该平台还将允许对大陆规模的电力系统进行建模，从而能够利用高压直流（HVDC）传输系统覆盖在广泛的地理区域内进行能源传输来提高供电安全性。该研究将帮助已经处于世界领先地位的加拿大电力系统模拟器行业保持其竞争优势，并为公用事业行业提供更高效的能源运输解决方案。在未来 5 年内，IRC 项目将培养超过 25 名熟练的研究生和博士后研究员，从而为加拿大至关重要的领域的高素质人才库做出了重大贡献。
