Summary
Modern power systems are facing significant structural changes due to the growing penetration of renewable energy sources, and advances in control and information technologies. Nonetheless, improvements in certain technologies have had notable impacts on power system transition such as widespread use of information and communication technologies in power systems operation, continuous increase of renewable energies share in the power generation, integration of renewable sources while maintaining grid’s stability and reliability, and extensive use of artificial intelligence in the power system. These improvements are leading the modern power systems to a new era in a process known as energy transition. The energy transition is considered as a route aiming to convert the global energy sector from centralized power systems and fossil-fuel power plants into sustainable and resilient smart grids.
