20801749 - ELECTRICAL ENERGETICS

The course provides to supply the students the basic knowledge of the energy technologies related to electric energy generation taking into account the energy needs in the industrial and civil sector.
Basic instruments and information will be supplied to better understand problems related the distributed energy generation particulary concerning electricity produced by renewable energy sources (photovoltaic, wind, fuelcell – hydrogen, etc.) including energy storage systems.

For the above mentioned energy systems will be analyzed and discussed the problems related to the grid connection and all active components and systems to assure the best quality of the energy distributed.
