tdla 2012 - 2012 IEEE/PES Transmission & Distribution Conference & Exposition: Latin America

Date of the conference: 3 - 5 September 2012.

Renewable energies are becoming increasingly more important in electric power systems along with the gradual introduction of electric cars bringing new challenges for the management of dispatch of generation resources in the system and for the grid operation.

In this context we propose it as the theme of the IEEE PES T&D LA 2012, dealing with these challenges.

The key-topics will be:

Management of systems with large-scale wind penetration,
Stability of power systems with high penetration of distributed generation,

Network operation in a scenario of a major conversion of the fleet automotive combustion engines to electric motors.
Renewable Energies in a developing continent.
Maintenance and operations of energy plants.
