Power system transients, which are always present in a system due to switching in the presence of inductance and capacitance, are unwanted things. They are an ignored topic in the electrical engineering curriculum of many institutes. This paper presents our new attempt to teach electric power system transients for graduate students of the Electric Power System Management Energy Program at the Asian Institute of Technology (AIT), Thailand.

In this study, a comprehensive research framework coupled with electric power demand forecasting, a regional electric system planning model, and post-optimization analysis is proposed for electric power system management. For dealing with multiple forms of uncertainties and dynamics concerning energy utilization, capacity expansions, and environmental protection, the inexact two-stage stochastic robust programming optimization model was developed. The novel programming method, which integrates interval parameter programming (IPP), stochastic robust optimization (SRO), and two-stage stochastic programming (TSP), was applied to electric power system planning and management in Harbin, China. Furthermore, the Gray-Markov approach was employed for effective electricity consumption prediction, and the forecasted results can be described as interval values with corresponding occurrence probability, aiming to produce viable input parameters of the optimization model. Ten scenarios were analyzed with different emissions reduction levels and electricity power structure adjustment modes, and the technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) was selected to identify the most influential factors of planning decisions by selecting the optimal scheme. The results indicate that a diversified power structure that dominates by thermal power and is mainly supplemented by biomass power should be formed to ensure regional sustainable development and electricity power supply security in Harbin. In addition, power structure adjustment is more effective than the pollutants emission control for electricity power system management. The results are insightful for supporting supply-side energy reform, generating an electricity generation scheme, adjusting energy structures, and formulating energy consumption of local policies.

This article provides a brief overview of the existing problems of managing the electric power system, taking into account the sources of distributed generation. The features of centralized and decentralized power supply systems are considered from the point of view of changing operating conditions, in particular, eliminating the consequences of technological violations. The main goals of the electric power system management have been determined, regardless of the number of sources and the category of consumers in terms of power supply reliability, as well as in emergency and post-emergency modes. The basic principles and sequence of power system management are presented. An algorithm for the efficiency of operation and dispatch control of the power system is considered, methods for ensuring the selective operation of relay protection and automation devices in the presence of several generating capacities are presented. A fragment of an electrical network with four energy sources is shown and the main measures to ensure its normal functioning are proposed.

With the development of computer simulation software, its application has become an important teaching method in Electrical Engineering and some related courses. This paper introduced some frequently-used simulation software in electric power system, such as PWS, PSASP, and MATLAB etc., and especially analyzed the application of these software in "power system analysis" course teaching.
