Course content
Framework and framework conditions for energy planning. Technical-economic-environmental description of different processes for transport, conversion and consumption of energy. Energy and heat planning. Local energy planning. Optimal operation of power production, among others hydro power. The water value method. An introduction to optimal expansion planning of energy systems. Support for renewable energy production.
Learning outcome
Knowledge:
After completing the course, the student shall:
- understand the methodic foundation and framework for energy planning on the local, regional and national level.
- understand methods for optimal power production.
- understand the water value method for hydro pwoer planning.
- understand basic economic principles for investments in energy systems.
Skills:
After completing the course, the student shall be able to:
- formulate and solve central problems within technical-economic-environmental planning and operation of stationary energy supply systems, electrical and thermal.
- give an account of the technical, economic and environmental consequences and optimize solutions for meeting the demand for electrical and thermal energy.
- be able to formulate simplified energy planning problems in Matlab
General competence:
After completing the course, the candidate has increased:
- skills in cooperation and interdisciplinary collaboration
- ability to communicate effectively to professionals and non-specialists alike through reports and presentations
- ability to contribute to innovation and innovation processes
Learning methods and activities
Lectures and compulsory exercises. Two excercises are based on Matlab. Compulsory project work, based on Matlab. Guest lecture from industry to emphasize the link between theory and practice. The course is given in English.
Compulsory assignments
- Exercises
- Project work
Further on evaluation
The final evaluation will be based on a written examination (counting 75%) and the project work (counting 25%) based on % fulfillment. Final grading will be from A to F.
If there is a re-sit examination, the examination form may change from written to oral.
In the case that the student receives an F/Fail as a final grade after both ordinary and re-sit exam, then the student must retake the course in its entirety. Submitted work that counts towards the final grade will also have to be retaken.
Permitted examination aids, support material code D: No printed or hand-written support material is allowed. A specific basic calculator is allowed. In addition, calculator Casio fx-991EX is allowed.
Recommended previous knowledge
TET4155 Infrastructure for Energy Transmission and Distribution or equivalent. Some bakcground in operations research like TIØ4120 Operations Research, Introduction, is strongly recommended.
