Digital Twins Applications in the Energy Internet Era

Digital twins are virtual models ñ digital replicas of an actual entity ñ which can be used to analyze and diagnoze a systemís operation in real-time. They were conceptually designed and considered a convenient means for the design and improvement of digital products while reducing the time-to-market. In recent utilization practices, digital twins can take immediate action when a situation is detected to update the physical system accordingly since they can offer insights to events that might occur to the actual entity or serve as the online model of it. In this proposed panel, current state-of-the-art methods of development in digital twin applications in the energy internet era and how energy internet multi-network/multi-levels/multi-layers affect the interdependencies of such modeling will be presented. We will bring together experts from academia and national labs and have them presenting their perspectives and works on the topicís emerging needs. The panel is aimed at engineers, scientists, researchers, educators, students, industrial utility experts, and other stakeholders who are engaged in PES community, research and education. Presentations in this panel session: - Digital twins for near-real-time security monitoring of grid assets - Transformers and Overhead Conductors (23PESGM4205)
