Course Description

INTRODUCTION

Why is Renewable Energy Integration essential in modern day electrical grid systems? This training course focuses on incorporating renewable energy, distributed generation, energy storage, thermally activated technologies, and demand response into the electric distribution and transmission system.

The solar power and wind turbines approaches are being used to conduct integration development and demonstrations to address technical, economic, regulatory, and institutional barriers for using renewable and distributed systems. In addition to fully addressing operational issues, the integration also establishes viable business models for incorporating these technologies into capacity planning, grid operations, and demand-side management.

Electric utilities are increasingly tasked with meeting Renewable Portfolio Standards, and are looking to generate power from wind, solar, geothermal, and biomass sources. But integrating the power from such renewable sources into the grid can be a daunting challenge.

Objectives

By the end of this GLOMACS training course, participants will be able to:

Understand the grid flexibility to renewable energy integration
Determine the various types of renewable energy
Explain the different types of solar panels
Analyse the common types of wind farms
Understand the various type of energy storage systems

Training Methodology

This course will utilise a variety of proven adult training techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. This includes presentation and discussion of latest videos and technologies on smart grids and renewable energy.

Questions are encouraged throughout, particularly at the daily wrap up sessions. This provides opportunities for participants to discuss with the Presenter specific issues and, if possible, find appropriate solutions. Specific goals of each participant will be discussed to ensure that their needs are fulfilled whenever practicable

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:

Electrical engineers
Electrical supervisors
Power engineers
Managers in-charge of electrical installations
Project engineers
