Course content
The course discusses the international and national development towards the future’s renewable electric energy system, and the concept known as Smart Grid. The starting point is the understanding of how design, operation and control of power systems traditionally have been considered. Integration of distributed and intermittent renewable energy requires a new paradigm, and the course gives a basis to understand and contribute to this development. Power systems, power electronics and renewable energy merge, for example in microgrids. In addition, the course discusses the interaction between the power grid and flexible resources, and smart meters.
Learning outcome
Knowledge:
After completing the course, the student shall
- Understand the background for Smart Grid and have knowledge about important terminology
- Know about challenges and possibilities related to smart meters
- Have knowledge about technology for microgrids and integration of renewable energy and energy storage
- Have knowledge about LCOE
Skills:
After completing the course, the student shall be able to
- Apply and pass on the knowledge as a basis for innovation in the energy sector
- Analyse and perform basic design of Smart Grid electric power systems, with emphasis on microgrids
- Calculate LCOE to evaluate the economy in renewable power projects.
Learning methods and activities
Lectures and mandatory project work or exercise. The course is given in English.
Compulsory assignments
- Øvinger
Further on evaluation
The final evaluation will be based on a written examination (counting 75%) and the obligatory 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.
