Integrated Planning, BC Hydro. His work includes
power system operational planning studies and
stability assessments, development and updates of
System Operating Orders, development of power
system remedial action schemes (RAS) and other
control schemes, power system stabilizer (PSS)
tuning studies, load interconnection system impact
studies (SIS), etc. He had worked with the
Operations Planning Department, T&D System
Operations (TDSO), BC Hydro, where he prepared the
Daily Operational Plans (DOP) and Total
Transmission Capability (TTC), and provided
real-time technical support to System Operators in
BC Hydro Control Center.
At UBC, Yingwei works on the
research and development of next-generation power
system simulation tools, by proposing innovative
techniques to the modeling of electric machines
and power electronic systems. In addition, he has
been teaching various electrical and power
engineering courses, including power systems
analysis I&II, power system operation and
control, electric machines and energy conversion
system, etc.
Yingwei is a
registered Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) in the
Province of British Columbia, and he is
an active member in several IEEE technical
committees and task forces, including IEEE PES
Transient Analysis and Simulation Subcommittee
(TASS), IEEE TF on Interfacing Techniques for
Simulation Tools (ITST), IEEE TF on Real-Time
Contingency Analysis (RTCA), IEEE TF on Dynamic
Average Modeling (DAM), etc.
