Among them, Prof. Behnam Mohammadi-Ivatloo from University of Tabriz, Iran addressed a thought-provoking speech on Flexibility Resources for Integrating more Renewable Energy Resources in Power Systems. In the speech, different challenges of integrating renewable energy resources were discussed and different flexibility options were presented for hosting a higher share of renewable power resources in the power systems. And then, Prof. Amjad Anvari-Moghaddam from Aalborg University, Denmark made a speech on Operation and Control of Renewable Energy Systems. To accommodate large numbers of renewable resources, energy distribution and transmission networks need to be adapted and expanded to avoid network congestion and failures. This report covered the aforementioned promising areas in green energy transition and discussed the current and future opportunities and challenges exist in this context. All the sophisticated keynote speakers combined their own interest fields with the conference theme to make dramatic speeches, triggering heated discussion in the conference.
