Objectives

Programme

1. Principles of Power System computer modeling, modeling and parameterization of system components, system model simulation.

2. Regulation of the reliability, availability, and quality of service requirements .

3. Network topologies and substation availability

4. Power quality. Short circuit current limiting.

5. Short circuit current limiting methods, issues influencing the choice of neutral grounding: an international review, case studies, effects of intermittent arcing faults. Practical, operational and economic aspects of the choice between neutral treatment alternatives

6. Fault Location practices (remotely operated switches, recloser applications and other intelligent methods)

7. Connection problems of small and household-size power plants and their effects on voltage quality.

8. Energy storage and network integration of electric mobility

9. Distribution Network Design Considerations, requirements, steps of design. Long-term forecasts and network development plans

10. Standards and licensing/authorization procedure and requirements

11. MV / LV system operation, troubleshooting, tasks related to operation and operation planning

12. Energy management. Control and ICT system applications and developments.

13. Sensors and actuators in smart distribution networks.

14. Influencing options of consumer and producer behavior.

This sub-specialization subject builds on students' interest, who are seeking to acquire knowledge about smart distribution systems operation, planning of public electricity networks, network integration of renewable energy sources, regulatory and decision support systems connected to the value-chain 'energy production – distribution and end use'. The course is designed for the introduction of the following aspects of future intelligent electricity distribution networks (smart grids): design, operation, protection, control systems, planning and analysis methods related to conventional and renewable energy sources. A systematic approach to these topics is essential. The subject gives insight into actual trends in smart grids, smart metering, electro-mobility, and distributed energy storage issues. The course seeks to disseminate knowledge on theoretical background of complex physical processes related to energy technologies, and also the application of this knowledge in computer-aided design, as well as in the efficient and safe operation. It shows computer simulation techniques suitable for examination of the steady-state system and transient processes, services provided by the modern software tools, computational models and parametrization solutions.
