IBR models verifications and compliances for bulk power-system integrations
2026-10-26 - 2026-10-29
Overview
This training will be held in English.
This course is designed to deepen your expertise in EMT Inverter-Based Resource (IBR) models using EMTP®. By the end of the training, participants will be able to:

To Understand EMT IBR models

To know how to build EMT IBR models

To understand which model to use for what studies

To know how to verify the quality and the conformity of an IBR model

To know how to perform important EMT studies:
– LVRT / HVRT
– Temporary Overvoltages
– Switching
– Stability
– Sub-Synchronous Control Interaction (SSCI)

This course includes hands-on exercises and guided examples to build both theoretical understanding and practical skills.

Training structure
The training lasts for 5 days, running daily from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., except for the last day, which ends at 11:00 a.m. The sessions will be conducted in English.

Computer and temporary EMTP® licenses
Every participant is required to bring their own personal computer. Temporary EMTP® licenses will be provided to participants for the course’s duration.
Intended audience
This training is ideal for T&D electrical engineers, consultants, industry professionals, researchers, and post-graduate students involved in power system studies.
