About

Motivation

Modern distribution and transmission networks face challenges such as the rise of power electronics, including inverter-based resources, and the impact of increased cabling on harmonic impedance and resonances. Accurate harmonic studies are essential for managing harmonic disturbances and ensuring system stability and reliability across all voltage levels.

Idea

An industry-academia workshop to provide a platform for experts in harmonic analysis - ranging from network operators, manufacturers, consultants and research institutions to standardization bodies - to share insights from recent projects and explore future challenges and solutions in this evolving field.

Connection to the conference

The ICHQP workshop complements the International Conference on Harmonics and Quality of Power (ICHQP). It is held in the years between conferences focusing on a contemporary topic in the field of Power Quality and harmonics. This 1st workshop is jointly organized by King's College London and TUD Dresden University of Technology.
