CONTENT, ASSESSMENT AND WORKLOAD
Content
valid for whole curriculum period:
This is a graduate level course with two equally important main goals and all activities of this course are planned to support meeting these two main goals. The first goal is to discuss topics related with distributed generation technologies. The second goal is to prepare the students to conduct research or help them to improve their research skills. This latter goal implies that students are expected to have a proactive approach to their course work, which in some cases will require finding on their own proper ways to find unknown solutions to a given problem. Still the instructor will provide guidance on skill necessary to succeed in this course goal. Guidance topics include, but are not limited to, writing technical journal tips or presentation skills. Technical topics included in this course are: distributed generation and microgrids elements; microsources; power electronics interfaces; dc and ac grid architectures; operation, stabilization, and control; reliability aspects; grid interconnection, smart grids.
