This upcoming seminar provides a review of the current United States electric power industry. Participants will learn about electricity properties and terminology, the functioning of electric service systems, and the structure of North American power grids. The seminar covers the roles of control areas and balancing authorities, the advantages and disadvantages of different electric generation types, and the fundamentals of utility regulation and open access markets.
