Electromagnetic Transient (EMT) Training
This Electromagnetic Transient (EMT) Training was developed through a collaboration between the Energy Systems Integration Group (ESIG), the U.S. Department of Energy’s Interconnection Innovation e-Xchange (i2X) Program, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory to support industry stakeholders across the United States.
As the power grid becomes increasingly dominated by inverter-based resources, large electronic loads, battery energy storage systems, and advanced power electronics, EMT simulation has become a critical component of interconnection, reliability, and planning studies. This training is designed to strengthen the technical capabilities of the current workforce by providing structured, practical instruction on performing EMT simulations within today’s evolving interconnection and planning framework.
Participants will gain hands-on insight into real-world EMT study workflows, including model development, validation, benchmarking, testing, and study execution. The course emphasizes practical methodologies and industry best practices that can be directly applied to improve study quality, consistency, and defensibility across utilities, ISOs/RTOs, consulting firms, and developer organizations.
The training modules are tailored to reflect the day-to-day responsibilities of engineers conducting EMT analysis, as well as the broader organizational considerations involved in managing EMT study programs. By the end of the workshop, participants will have a clearer understanding of how to integrate EMT studies effectively into modern interconnection processes and system planning activities.
This program equips professionals with both the technical depth and practical guidance necessary to elevate EMT study practices across the industry.

Slide DecksWelcome to the Electromagnetic Transient (EMT) Training Workshop Series.
This comprehensive virtual workshop is structured in two parts, designed to progressively build your expertise in EMT modeling, simulation practices, and advanced study applications within today’s evolving power system landscape.
To complete the full training experience, you may choose to watch all sessions consecutively or divide them into smaller segments based on your schedule. We recommend completing one part at a time to ensure better focus, retention, and technical comprehension.
For the best learning experience, we strongly encourage you to review the accompanying slide decks while following the recordings. This will help reinforce key modeling concepts, control strategies, benchmarking methods, and special study procedures discussed throughout the workshop.
This training is intended to provide both practical execution skills and strategic understanding of how EMT studies are performed, validated, and managed within modern interconnection and planning frameworks.
