Andrew Isaacs

About the Webinar: Continued industry need for EMT analysis has prompted NERC and others to recommend that planning groups require EMT models for all generator interconnections going forward. This presentation will cover:

  • Background on the drivers for these recommendations
  • The basic components of what these requirements should look like
  • A practical discussion of what is involved in ensuring submitted models are appropriate and useful
  • A practical discussion of the challenges involved in implementing such requirements, including schedule impacts, human resource constraints, and acquisition of new skills.

About the Speaker: Andrew Isaacs is Vice-President of Electranix, where he has been since 2003. He specializes in renewable interconnections, weak grid and SSR/SSCI issues, and large scale EMT system modelling. Additional current efforts include specification and support for FACTs, training for utility planners, strategic consulting, and study team leadership. Andrew obtained his M.Sc.(EE) from the University of Manitoba, Canada.

Moderator: Julia Matevosyan, Chief Engineer, ESIG
