Elproduktion och energilager, 7,5 hp

The course package ELPRO is in total 7.5 hp and consists of the following courses:

• EEO601, Electricity Production and Energy Storage- Overview, 3 hp
• EPA701, Electricity Production and Energy Storage - Analysis, 4.5 hp

An admission for the course package results in admission for both courses and it is optional just to complete EEO601 or both courses. EEO601 covers the lectures and shorter theoretical assignments. EPA701 covers longer assignments where the theory is implemented in simulation studies using DigSiILENT PowerFactory.

Course content

The course covers steady state and dynamic performance for power production units and energy storage units. This includes both traditional power production such as hydro power and nuclear power and more modern types of power production such as wind power and solar power. Important aspects covered are energy conversion, turbine and governor control, generator systems with power electronics, capability charts and requirements for connection for the different power production units. Further, available power and durability is addressed by the different production units. Focus is on obtaining dynamic models for the most common types of energy storage units to represent the dynamic performance seen from the grid

In the course EPA701 the theory will be implemented in simulation studies using DigSILENT Power Factory.

Schedule

The course will have hybrid lectures where you can participate either at Campus or online via Zoom. The lectures are recorded and are available at Canvas afterwards. The schedule will be posted closer to the start of the course and will contain 4 lecture days (9-16) and 4 shorter questions sessions online.

Examination

EEO601: Shorter assignments with analytical calculations using for example Matlab

EPA701: Longer assignments including simulations studies in DigSILENT PowerFactory

Prerequisites

The course is at advanced level and is intended to evaluate the dynamic operation of generation and storage units. To get the most out of the course, basic knowledge of power system operation as well as knowledge about electric machines and power electronics is recommended, typically corresponding to a bachelor in electric power engineering or work at a grid company/producer.

Industri och akademi

Detta kurspaket är framtaget i samverkan med industrin inom ramen för ett av våra utbildningsprojektet. Projektet syftar till att ge kurser på avancerad nivå till en mix av studenter och yrkesverksamma för att förstärka den svenska industrins konkurrenskraft.

Vi tillämpar validering av arbetslivserfarenhet. Även om du inte har formell behörighet, exempelvis betyg eller examensbevis, kan du ha de kunskaper som motsvarar behörighetskraven för kursen. Det innebär att vi kan bedöma din kompetens utifrån både formella meriter och arbetslivserfarenhet.

För att vi ska kunna validera, bifogar du din meritförteckning under fliken "Meriter" på antagning.se eller i vårt lokala anmälningsformulär när du gör din anmälan. Blankett finns på vår hemsida www.hv.se/elektroteknikkurser.
