The Study Committee C4 (Power System Technical Performance) is responsible for advanced methods and tools for analysis related to power systems.

Areas of attention include:

Power Quality Performance: Continuity of end-to-end electric power supply and voltage waveform quality (magnitude, frequency, symmetry). Analysis covers emission assessments from disturbing installations, measurement and simulation methods, identification of quality indices, monitoring techniques, immunity of sensitive installations, and mitigation techniques taking into account a co-ordinated approach across all voltage levels.

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): High frequency disturbances on the end-to-end electricity supply and all disturbances (HF or LF) reaching equipment other than through the electricity supply. Studies include measurement and simulation methods. Health effects related to low frequency EMF are however excluded.

Power System Dynamics: Development of advanced tools and new analytical techniques for assessment of power system dynamic/transient performance, security, design of controls and modelling of existing and new equipment, real time stability evaluation and control.

Lightning: Analysis of lightning characteristics and interactions of lightning with electric power systems and equipment, including protection in MV and LV networks against lightning, and their standardisation.

Insulation Co-ordination: Methods and tools for insulation co-ordination and electromagnetic transient analysis in electric power systems and equipment, contributing to optimisation of their cost and reliability.

Babak Badrzadeh is Technical Director – Power Systems with Aurecon Group. He received B.Sc., M.Sc. and Ph.D. all in the area of electrical power engineering in 1999, 2002 and 2007, respectively. Prior to joining Aurecon, he spent his career in Mott MacDonald Transmission and Distribution, Vestas Wind Systems, and the past nine years with Australian Energy Market Operator.

His focus areas include power system modelling and analysis, impact of grid-connected and distributed inverter-based resources on power system operations and planning, and power system restoration.

Throughout his career, he has been involved in more than 300 power system modelling and analysis works in four continents including design, grid integration, planning and operational impact assessments, generator connections, commissioning and model validation projects. In particular, he has played a key role in the worldwide establishment of wide-area electromagnetic transient (EMT) modelling, and the overarching area of system strength.

He is currently Convener of CIGRE Working Groups B4.83, C2.26 and C4.56, and Member of CIGRE SC C2 Strategic Advisory Committee. He has written more than 60 IEEE and CIGRE journal and conference papers including many invited papers, served as Keynote and Invited Speaker in several international events and chaired multiple conference sessions. Babak is Distinguished Lecturer (DP) for IEEE Power and Energy Society (PES), and a Recipient of 2019 Energy Systems Integration Group (ESIG) Engineering Excellence Award. 

Zia Emin received his B.Sc.in Electrical & Electronics Engineering from the Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey, and M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from The University of Manchester, Manchester, United Kingdom. He has worked as a specialist power system engineer with many years of experience in power quality and switching studies initially with National Grid and later with Parsons Brinckerhoff (later WSP) and PSC. He has extensive knowledge in all aspects of power system modelling including steady-state, frequency and time domain modelling and substantial experience in harmonic performance specification for HVDC converter stations, renewable generation connections and the connection of traction supply points.

He is Fellow of the Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET, UK), Senior Member of IEEE, Distinguished Member of CIGRE and Chartered Engineer in United Kingdom. He is Member of GEL/210/12 Committee at the British Standards Institution and of WG8 in IEC SC77A. He is active in many CIGRE working groups as Member, Task Force Leader and Convener within system technical performance area related to power quality and insulation coordination. He was the past UK representative on CIGRE SC C4 System Technical Performance and is currently Chairman for the same Study Committee. He received the CIGRE Technical Committee Award in 2013, the Distinguished Member Award in 2014 and Senior and Principal Professional Associate title within Parsons Brinckerhoff reflecting recognition on his technical and professional level. He has served in several colloquia, symposia and conference technical committees and continues to do so. He has over 50 technical publications and is Reviewer in many technical journals of IET, IEEE and other publishers.
