Instructors: Dr. Haitham Abu-Rub, Texas A&M University at Qatar Omar, USA, Dr. Omar Ellabban, Texas A&M University at Qatar Omar, USA The smart grid (SG) as a research area is advancing dealing with a wider range of topics such as power systems, energy generation and telecommunication. The conventional utility grid used to operate in a passive mode absorbing energy from the substations and delivering it to the customers. This approach is well developed but the needs of the state-of-the-art technology require a bidirectional flow of power and data. Nevertheless, smart grid systems provide more flexible, reliable, sustainable, secure and two- way communication service. Especially, integration of renewable energy sources, electrical vehicles and distributed generations (DG) in to network can be achieved in an efficient way in smart grid system. All these positive aspects of smart grids have been attained by integration of power electronics and telecommunication technologies with the grid. This presentation deals with contributions of power electronics to SG in the context of generation, conversion, and distribution.
