Master PSS®E Steady-State & IBR Grid Integration Studies

A focused 6-session professional program covering PSS®E steady-state analysis and Egyptian IBR grid-code compliance, using industry-standard PSS®E software.

This program delivers step-by-step guidance through PSS®E fundamentals, steady-state power flow analysis, short-circuit and contingency analysis, and PV/transfer limit and QV analysis with FACTS sizing — then moves into Egyptian IBR grid-code compliance, IBR modeling in PSS®E (PV/wind inverters, transformers, cables/TLs, grid equivalents), and a comprehensive IBR steady-state compliance assessment. Live PSS®E demonstrations and guided practice are included in every session.

Starting the week of 12 October 2026, you'll build industry-ready skills directly applicable to real-world power system and IBR grid integration studies. Each session includes live PSS®E demonstrations, hands-on practice, and Q&A. Participants receive practice materials.
