Objective
Course will give overview to electric power systems from energy engineering point of view. Power plant grid connection and operation as a part of larger power system will be emphasized.
After the course, student will
· be familiar with basics of power engineering in case of AC and DC systems and can solve electrical parameters related to them.
· explain structure and the most essential components of the electrical grid
· be able to use software tools for power flow and fault calculations as well as make design of simple electrical grid.
· describe basics of power system stability
· recall grid code for power generating facilities and energy storage systems and can apply them in case of power plant grid connection
· recall power quality requirements in distribution grid and identify grid impacts of converters
