Title: Improved Safety and Performance using Current and Voltage Sensors in Distribution SwitchgearSpeaker’s name: Dr. Lukas CeskyAbstract: In the past decade, there has been noticeable growth in the use of low-power passive instrument transformers (aka Sensors) based on the Rogowski coil principle for current and resistive or capacitive voltage divider principles for voltage. These advanced technologies have been utilized in various applications from secondary to primary distribution in both indoor and outdoor applications. These sensors provide an advanced alternative to using conventional instrument transformers in electrical distribution systems for measurement, power quality, and protection applications. In this webinar we will cover the basics of this technology and the applicable standards. We will discuss various aspects of the integration of this technology into distribution switchgear and describe the significant resulting benefits in terms of safety, sustainability and <a href="http://performance.Speaker(s):">performance.[]Speaker(s): LukasAgenda: Webinar:11:45am - 1:00pm11:45 AM - Webinar begins11:45 AM - 12:45 PM - Webinar content presentation12:45 PM - 1:00 PM - Questions and AswersProfessional Development Hours (PDH) eligibleVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/518662

This presentation examines the transition of applied research in artificial intelligence, power systems, and building energy management toward early-stage deployment through the formation of Semitechnic Corp., A startup emerging from research conducted in collaboration with the University of Alberta. The talk outlines how academic methods, including data-driven optimization, edge AI, and intelligent control, are being adapted for practical use in building-scale and distributed energy <a href="http://systems.Rather" target="_blank" title="systems.Rather">systems.Rather than emphasizing completed commercialization outcomes, the presentation focuses on the process of moving from research prototypes to deployable systems. Topics include system architecture design, integration with existing electrical and building automation infrastructure, validation using operational data, and challenges encountered in progressing toward pilot and field deployment. The session concludes with reflections on aligning academic research with real-world constraints related to resilience, electrification, and distributed energy resource <a href="http://integration.Co-sponsored" target="_blank" title="integration.Co-sponsored">integration.Co-sponsored by: Resilience and Clean Energy Systems (RCES)Speaker(s): Reza EnalouiVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/524795

Despite their critical role, PCB reliability has historically received far less attention than that of electronic components, particularly active devices. This gap is partly due to the perception of PCBs as mature, supporting structures rather than primary reliability <a href="http://drivers.However" target="_blank" title="drivers.However">drivers.However, PCB technologies continue to evolve, especially for mission‑critical applications operating under high temperature, high humidity, or radiation‑intensive environments. In these conditions, PCB failure mechanisms can significantly influence overall system reliability, yet published studies remain <a href="http://limited.This" target="_blank" title="limited.This">limited.This talk will present key PCB failure mechanisms and highlight how PCB‑level degradation can propagate to system‑level failures, drawing on insights from my recent research.

FocusAs Alberta advances toward a resilient and sustainable energy future, the province faces increasing complexity across its power system. Building a robust power grid therefore has become a central objective, driven by emerging technical challenges as well as new opportunities enabled by rapid technological development. In particular, growing renewable and clean fuel integration is accelerating the transition to cleaner energy while also increasing variability and the need for greater operational flexibility. AI further introduces both substantial electricity demand from large data centers and powerful tools for improving forecasting, stability, and system optimization. In addition, advances in nuclear technologies such as Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), presents a potential pathway to firm, low-carbon baseload generation that can enhance long-term system reliability. By bringing together diverse perspectives, this workshop aims to foster informed discussion on pathways toward a robust, resilient, and future-ready energy system for <a href="http://Alberta.PanelistsThis" target="_blank" title="Alberta.PanelistsThis">Alberta.PanelistsThis workshop will bring together experts from the HATCH, City of Edmonton, Alberta Innovates, and the University of <a href="http://Texas.Co-sponsored" target="_blank" title="Texas.Co-sponsored">Texas.Co-sponsored by: RESILIENT & CLEAN ENERGY SYSTEMS (RCES)Speaker(s): Jeanie Chin, Patrick Baltazart , Wei-Jen Lee, Robert (Rob) BakerRoom: 8-207, Bldg: Donadeo Innovation Centre for Engineering (DICE), 9211 116 St NW, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, T6G 1H9
