Course details

This course explains the basics of the smart grid and how it works with today’s power system. It introduces modern technologies such as electric vehicles, energy storage systems, microgrids (AC, DC, and hybrid), phasor measurement units (PMUs), and cyber security. The course also covers how energy storage systems are modeled, planned, operated, and controlled. It explains how AC, DC, and hybrid microgrids are designed and managed. Special focus is given to integrating renewable energy sources into the main grid and microgrids, along with their operation, control, protection, and monitoring. Some concepts are also demonstrated using laboratory-scale experiments for better understanding.
