Course

Smart grid with distributed production (ELK250)

The course provides an introduction to charging infrastructure for larger consumers such as fast boats and ferries and for smaller consumers such as electric cars and construction machinery. The students must understand the challenge these systems bring with regard to voltage quality, power peaks, reliability and balance in distribution and distribution networks and how to deal with this. Potential safety hazards in the transfer of a lot of electrical energy in a short time and safety and protection.

Content

The course provides an introduction to distributed power generation, microgrid and smartgrid, as well as smart electricity meters and load prioritization. It shows how you can set up your own local grids in ports and on large construction sites and regulate local production and energy storage against local consumption with the aim of achieving grid stabilization. An introduction to communication protocols for automation in energy supply is given, and an introduction to IEC 61850 in general and IEC 61850-7-420. Connection and regulation of distributed production to the existing grid is also being looked at. The subject also includes design, calculation, analysis and simulation of microgrids with regard to both stationary and dynamic behavior and performance. It also includes practical laboratory work.

Emneevaluering

There must be an early dialogue between the course supervisor, the student union representative and the students. The purpose is feedback from the students for changes and adjustments in the course for the current semester.In addition, a digital subject evaluation must be carried out at least every three years. Its purpose is to gather the students experiences with the course.
