ENERGY PRACTICE
IEEE’s Energy Practice provides a focal point for information and assistance across the wide range of IEEE standards and related initiatives associated with the topic of Energy, as well as linkage to IEEE Societies, programs and conferences of interest to the Energy community. IEEE expertise, programs, products and services are very broad and numerous in the field of Energy – our website attempts to categorize information as simply as possible, and will update with new and additional information on a monthly basis.
DEPLOY PMUs WITH CONFIDENCE: ASSURING DATA QUALITY THROUGH STANDARDS, TESTING AND CERTIFICATION
Phasor Measurement Units (PMU) that meet the requirements of IEC/IEEE 60255-118-1 2018 provide consistent and reliable data that accurately represents a power system. PMUs that do not meet the requirements risk providing inaccurate results. This webinar will look at details of the standard that assure consistent measurements and explore examples of non-conforming PMU measurements for their unreliability.
RAISING STANDARDS FOR RENEWABLES INTEGRATION IN GHANA
It started with an interaction at an IEEE conference a little more than a year ago. An engineer from the Electricity Company of Ghana Ltd. stopped by the IEEE Conformity Assessment Program (ICAP) booth. We talked about his country’s energy landscape and goals, and we talked about IEEE standards and conformity assessment activities in grid modernization, such as IEEE 1547™—IEEE Standard for Interconnecting Distributed Resources with Electric Power Systems. It turned out there was plenty of common ground to be shared.

Energy generation, transmission and distribution technologies continuously evolve, with accelerated urgency driven by grid modernization in support of sustainable, low-carbon energy solutions. Renewable and distributed energy resources, smart grid, energy storage, microgrids and more are addressed with a focus on IEEE initiatives, programs and products that support these issues.
The energy consumption side of the equation is a key factor in the next-generation grid. Transportation electrification, growing penetration of electric vehicles and their infrastructure, efficiency initiatives for large industrial consumers of energy, and related global policy goals are addressed, describing IEEE’s role in supporting these growing issues.
IEEE has a rich history in defining the design and deployment of the essential infrastructure physical hardware and software that comprise our global energy systems, along with guidance on safe operations to help protect utility workers (e.g. the National Electrical Safety Code). IEEE addresses infrastructure evolution as grid modernization accelerates to help assure safe, reliable and available energy to global customers.
