Synopsis of Course Contents Power system operation and control comprises of two major activitiesof operational planning and real time operation. Operational planningis responsible for forecasting, scheduling, maintenance outagescheduling, commissioning and security analysis. Real time operationand control starts with the receipt of the operation plans andcontinues with activities for dispatching, switching and real-time

security analysis. At the same time control operators must beprepared for emergency involving switching operations, load-shedding, generation tripping, reactive sources operation etc..In this course, students will learn the various elements of operationalplanning and real-time operation including current challenges. Thiscourse is also intended to expose students to current trend in powersystem operation that may generate new ideas for research.

Presentation skills

Technical writing skills

Synopsis of Course Contents Application aspects of power system dynamics and controls canusually be acquired or learned through industry experience and

courses work in utility planning, operation, consulting, as well as inpower plants. In utility practices, power system dynamic calculationsare carried out using commercial packages and the two mostimportant aspects of such applications are:

to ensure that the input data and assumptions are correct;and

the output are reasonable/practical and can be analysed andunderstood.

In utility practices, aspects of dynamic computational methods are notnormally the concern. Therefore, there is a gap in the understandingof computational methods, limitations, applications, future trends andinnovations. This course intends to fill the gap and a postgraduatecourse like this would present a good opportunity for students as well

as practicing engineers to explore and understand power systemdynamic computations and perhaps to take up the subject asresearch area/interest.

Learning Outcomes* At the end of this course, students are able to:10. Compare various electricity market structures and identify the

most appropriate for Malaysia11. Identify the various business elements associated competitive

electricity market12. Use bidding information and perform dispatch and balancing

in the competitive market13. Analyse security issues in a deregulated environment


Synopsis of Course Contents Current trend in power system economics study focuses on howcompetition is introduced in traditionally monopolistic industry andhow competition can be made successful. From economicperspective, the electricity supply industry in Malaysia is consideredhardly competitive. It is inevitable that the local supply industry mustbecome more efficient to compete for the same scarce resources.Efficiency can only be achieved through competition. This course will

focus on understanding competitive electricity market operation sothat course participants can identify the most appropriate strategiesfor the Malaysian electricity supply industry to move ahead toestablish competition. Hopefully this will encourage research in thesubject and groom power system economists for the country.

The course starts with understanding of electricity supply industryreforms with introduction to electricity industry structure, regulationsand the incentives to introduce competition. Fundamental concepts ineconomics as applied to electricity supply and demand and costs andprice are elaborated. Various electricity markets and tradingarrangements are discussed next. Description of both electricitywholesale and retail markets are described with several examples oftrading arrangements. System security issues and acquisition ofancillary services are discussed next followed by discussions ontransmission in competitive market, system operation requirements,balancing and the Grid Code.
