Course objectives:
|
To acquaint students with the principles and characteristics of renewable energy sources and their use for energy purposes in accordance to the development of electricity system decentralization. Students will gain knowledge about the flexibility and reliability of RES, about influence of decentralized sources on the operation of the power system and possibilities of utilization of electric energy accumulation for RES.
|
Requirements on student
|
Credit:
Active attendance at seminars (max. 1 excused absence) and timely submission of properly prepared papers on the given topic. Mastering the subject to the extent defined by the lecturer (passing the written test at least to 75 %; if necessary, oral examination).
