San Marcos Grid Integration Study with PowerWorld.
Sponsor: Ingram School of Engineering (ISoE)
Student Team: David Bendeck Cortes, Grant Koop, David Castillo
Project Advisor(s): Dr. Sercan Iscan
Faculty Instructor: Mr. Jeffrey Stevens
Our project develops a PowerWorld simulation of the existing San Marcos power grid to integrate an LED bulb factory and a utility-scale solar plant. The simulation will focus on transmission-level planning, evaluating system performance under base-case and N-1 contingency conditions. This project provides hands-on experience using industry-standard power system planning tools and design practices, preparing students for careers in transmission planning and grid integration for renewable energy.
