Abstract: In this presentation, authors review tasks of the industrial research and formulate its key priorities for the power systems engineering in energy transition. We will first review various physical phenomena in power systems and those mathematical descriptions. We will look at the problems from the vendor, system operator, and market participant perspective. We will review existing and evolving power technologies and qualitatively assess the fitness of these to address challenges of the energy transition. Finally, we make a deeper dive into specific planning problem and analysis. We conclude with provoking thoughts and rational summary.
