| Skills to be acquired in this module | Energy Systems - characterise the global energy system and its structure and constraints - analyse the potential for improving the global energy system based on energy and exergy efficiencies - understand the basic relationship between global energy supply and climate change - understand recent and future changes of electricity supply due to increasing fluctuating renewables and ‘smart’ technologies
Future Power Supply Systems - explain the management, modelling and power balancing within future electricity grid configurations with high shares of fluctuating and distributed generation - appraise the main components (incl. chemical storage options) involved in future AC-grid concepts - categorise different grid-designs, including mini- and micro-grids |
| Module contents | Energy Systems - Definitions, resources & reserves - Global resources & potentials: fossil energies, renewable energies - Energy system analysis: Efficiencies at various levels of the energy chain; Exergy analysis - Energy scenarios - Climate Change - Advanced conventional (power plant) technologies - Electric power systems with large shares of renewables
Future Power Supply Systems - Fundamentals, structure, technologies and operation of electricity grids (incl. balancing power, voltage management, etc.) - Distributed generation of fluctiuating power - Transmission and distribution grids, storage, vehicle-to-grid-concepts, smart inverters, heat pumps/CHP - Different electricity markets (Futures Market, Day-Ahead-Market, Intraday-Market, Balancing Power Market, Self-Consumption) - “Smart City”, “Smart Grid”, “Smart Home”, Mini- and Micro-Grids - Chemical energy carriers: power-to-gas (e.g. methane) and power-to-liquids (e.g.methanol) |
