It feels like a normal Thursday morning. I'm sitting in my office, sipping on my coffee and working on my computer. BUT there is something different... I am also sitting in a conference hall with 221 users listening to a live presentation about Wind Power Plant Modeling for Real-Time Simulation. I am attending the Energy Virtual Conference!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\"The\r\n\r\n

This was the first session I could attend, because I didn't get up at for the earlier sessions that started at 5 AM EDT!<\/p>\r\n\r\n

\"Richard<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Wind Power Plant Modeling for Real-Time Simulation<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Richard Gagnon from Hydro Quebec<\/a> described how they are using Simulink, Real Time Workshop, and Sim Power Systems to model wind power generation. They integrate their models with what a real-time system they have developed called HyperSim.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

\"A<\/p>\r\n\r\n

They are also using field measurements for validation of the wind turbine models. Richard provided an overview of how they develop and integrate their models with a well-tested, well-verified process involving Model-Based Design.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Live Q&A<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Following the presentation was a question and answer session with Richard. Some of the questions asked included:
